I cant speak for the other coilovers here because I havent tried them and I cant really compare because I have only tried the fortune autos 510. But I have to say that they are the real deal on track. Get the spring rates that suit your needs, they will be valved accordingly and the adjustement has a very noticeable effect. They are rebound adjustable only, compression is fixed, which isnt a bad thing but rather a good one (double adjustables is better, if you know how to adjust them to each day's conditions and road surface). They come with camber plates on front (pillowball), and alu mounts (similar to raceseng) in the rear. They have a short travel but the shocks are really good. Track times are around 2 seconds per minute lap vs stock suspension on the same tires. They can go really low if you want them too, like 2+ inches low, or stay around stock ride heigh.

Edit: relevant video (not an FRS, but the concept still applies)
