This has been covered a million times, and it basically comes down to either Tokico Blues or KYB GR2

Tokico HP's.

Hands down the best bang for the buck performance strut out there. Mine are coming up on 4 years with no leaks/issues and I've beaten them to death with TEIN's for 2 of those years, the other two with Eibach Prokit springs. Valving is perfect for your average drop spring.

And yes, please search a bit before posting a question like this.
