Tokico are good. I'm thinking about getting those myself.

KYB = POS. Never been happy with the performance or durability.

Tokico, Koni, Bilstein. Any of those 3 will be wonderful for you. I prefer Bilstein myself but they are quite expensive compared to the others. Tokico HP or Illumina should be sufficient for most street duty. I'd also recommend (highly) a set of Maximum Motorsports caster camber plates. Think of it as another 200 bucks well spent.

I have had KYB on my car for the three years and have never really been happy with the ride quality. In fact I rather think the stock shit worked better than what I have now. I am going away from the KYB next time.
