KYB GR-2 versus Monroe vs Stock

For a G37s, which of the two after market shocks would be most like the Stock Sport suspension?

GR-2? or Monroe OESpectrum?

Which in peoples opinion is the better choice? Not looking to drop the car or go to coilovers.

I put KYB GR2s on my 2004 Sedan, which had the Sport package with the famous "red" struts/shocks (I believe KYB made these for Nissan). They were almost identical, which to me was a good thing as I replaced the reds at 87K miles and they were tired. I've heard good things about the Tokico blues.

The stock shocks/struts work well on the later model S package, but they are going to be pricey compared to KYBs.

I cannot find a part number for Tokico Blues. I had them on Eclipse GST back in the day and liked them.
