92-BG-6 -> front struts

I have to replace my front struts. I have been told that I am a hard driver, would some kind of sport struts help increase performance? is there a reason other than cosmetic for using struts that would lower the car. should i replace the shocks struts and mount on all four or can i do the front first and then the rear another time. can someone suggest a brand?
also i need to replace a LR - caliper, i was thinking i would upgrade them, also the disks and brakes, anyone have a suggestion for a high Q brand on those?
rotors
- slotted?
- with holes?
- with holes and slots?

Sorry for so many questions, I really must say that I luv this car and want it to last another 100 K or so. the engine is fine and the body is rust free, it jsut needs some other things.
thank you for the help

thanks for the advice, should i go for front and back at the same time?
what about springs? for maybe a 1.25 drop in front and a 1 drop in the back ?
what is your full suspension setup on yours?
oh yeah, the 6=1.8 liter DOHC NA 2WD -- off the VIN
thanks for helping me out
