Default new shocks/unknown springs

i wanna purchase some new shocks for my 96 ls(se)...i bought the car as is and it looks as if it has a slight drop on it already...theres only a one maybe one and a half finger gap in the wheel well...compared to other stock tegs its noticeably lower.. my question is what would be good shocks to swap out the stocks with...nothin adjustable,yet good in performance and not a wallet raper...also if i wanted to changed my bushing related to the suspension components, what would all theses bushing be..
i.e. lca bushings,uca bushings...what others am i leaving out and i want the oem rubber ones..what would a complete oem suspension bushing kit run me...im hoping these are the reasons i get some thumping/thud sounds over bumpy streets
either that or its the plastic panels in the hatch but im aiming to the supension components....thanks in adavance search didnt cover my issue.. i tried already...

Tokico blues would be a good choice if you don't want adjustable. If you can swing it, Koni sports are worth every penny.

You would want a complete energy suspension bushing kit...it gives you every bushing in the car. Beware though, it's a real labor intensive PITA to do and requires a big press.
