Hey guys, just wondering what set of struts you guys recommend? Car sits a bit lower than I would like and the rides a bit bouncy. Will also be getting a strut bar. Also will I need to get another alignment if I change all four struts?

KYB GR-2 Excell G. You should get new strut mounts and springs while you are at it too.
If you want better handling it's not just struts you need:
New struts, strut mounts, springs... If KYB is your taste, get the quick struts - 5 bolts and done!
Upgrade front and rear Sway Bars, For many Solid up front and Arco Rear, use Poly Bushings and Poly End Links too.
Replace FCA's is easy and cheap.
Rear Trailing Arms, F&R Strut Braces...
Then youll notice a difference ; )
Just struts will feel good for a week or two, then you'd never know you did them...
I was gonna use Delco FE3's on the back first, still might. Springs can be a PITA though.
Noticed this from rick about a Monroe Quickstrut replacement, although I do still have ride height concerns. (comes w/spring installed) -
That being said, I did look at FE4's. They're expensive.
I'd suggest an alignment for tire wear.
Edit: For 04+ GP

I am running Comp G struts all around with vogtland springs. No bounce, and great handling with decent comfort.
The comp G struts are for 04" GP but worked perfectly fine for my 2000 GTP.
I have been running KYB AGX with Vogtland springs for 7 years now and they been a huge improvement over stock. I also don’t notice any rear end sag issue.
I have around 100K on the shocks and I am slowly starting to notice some extra bounce on the highway. They still don’t feel too bad and there is no visible leaks but just not the same performance. You should definitely invest as they offer good performance and will last you many miles.
