Tein S-Tech and Monroes also very comfy, when coupled with the right tire (General Altimax RT=great ride)... should be similar to DFs. Monroes (at least the Echo-spec ones) also lower the front an extra 1/2 in., may be an issue with speedbumps

the tokicos are nothing special.
the stock shocks are made by tokico.

i hade the s-tech and monroe set up for about a year and it was very nice, i think it was smoother than stock.

but then i grew up and got some coilovers.
that would be my advice is just save up your money for some coilovers.
