Mazda (Tokico) Shocks/Struts
Tokico struts generally last 100k miles, and are a very high quality strut.
Tokico Gas 5-way Adjustable HP-Illuminas
Tokico Gas adjustable shocks are available in the US, and easily imported.
For most owners NON-adjustable gas units (Tokico Blue) are ideal.
Koni
For the Probe, Koni offer Adjustable Sport shocks (yellow). For the
626/MX6 Koni offer Adjustable Specials (shock-only), special in that you
have to cut-apart your old struts for the cases, and shock adjustment is
via removing strut/springs from the car, clamping them & turning.
Softer Ride
Probe owners may find the Tokico Gas Adjustables useful, with a softer '2'
setting at the rear & middling '3' at the front (the stock Probe uses a rear
setting equivalent to 4). The '5' setting is useful for track-use or US-autocross.
