Almost anything out there (from Japan) is okay.
I like Tein and Cusco myself
Most street driven cars don't need all the fancy adjustments most of those systems offer - it's a waste of money.
Tokico Blues + aftermarket springs are usually fine for most applications.

Personally, I like Koni dampers with custom housings for the FC.
(Koni is made in Europe - not Japan.)
Koni yellows offer great adjustment (continuously variable - not detents; not necessarily good for beginners) and can be custom valved if need be (for serious racing) - this is overkill for the street.

Cheap adjustable are KYB AGX's (great for the money + adjustment).

Retrofit coilovers are offered by Ground Control.
You can run whatever spring rate you want to custom your ride height.
