I highly recommend KYB GR-2/Excel-Gs: http://www.kyb.com/products/shocks/gr2.php
The online catalog is here: http://showmetheparts.com/kyb/
Take the part numbers shown and plug them into an online provider like Amazon or Partsgeek.
2WD, w/o 4 wheel steering and a Sport Package, it shows:
340021 (Front Left Strut)
340020 (Front Right Strut)
349096 x 2 (Rear Right and Left Shocks)
Also include new mounts as you should replace these as well; SM5542 (Called a "Front Mounting Kit", but you need 2 of these, not 1)
A little over $300 plus shipping. I like Parts Geek because they are reliable and I can usually find some form of online coupon as well.
You can also replace the bellows at the same time (the dust cover/rubber boot), but some either use the old ones or just leave them off all together.
I would recommend having a reputable suspension shop install them unless you are comfortable doing your own work. I paid $300 US for Springs/Shocks/Struts and Alignment, which is less than 1/2 of what the Infiniti dealer wanted to do the same job.
Good Luck.
