Default Suspension help......

Good day,
Recently installed some RS-R used springs and shocks on my EG9. Before the car use to dance around because of the dead shocks with the stock springs. Now it doesn't with the new setup, the ride height is about 1.6" drop front and 1.0" in the rear, I noticed however around 120kmph + when I hit depressions on the highway the front would dip and bounce up and down like if the suspension is to soft.
I dont know the brand of the shocks on the RS-R springs but I think its OEM for the EG8 just got them from a used Japanese EG8, yeh my country brings used cars and scrap them for parts.
What would be some good shocks to put on those springs for a stiffer ride without that bounce? There are the normal KYB GR-2 gas shocks or the EXCEL-G. What you guys think?

One more thing, I was looking at the RS-R website and when looking for EG 92-95 springs they note that it fits all models between 92-95 so that would mean EG8-EG9? Or would the EG8 and EG9 have a different spring rate?

Note all ball-joints and bushings are changed.
