Identifying classic shocks for spring change.

I'm trying to identify the shocks on my '95 WRX, so that I can look into replacing the springs to increase my ride height and get a softer ride. Can anyone tell me if these shocks are standard Subaru equipment, or aftermarket (as I don't want to order springs that don't fit the shocks) - I've checked them over for a manufacturers name but can't find anything.
I'm hoping that the damping adjustment (4 settings front, 7 rear - I think) will help someone recognise them, they are not height adjustable and are light green in colour. Also, can anyone recommend a good spring package that's not ridiculously hard? Thanks.

The current setup is way too hard. I figure a simple spring change and allignment should sort it. Is that right, or will I end up with mismatched springs/ dampers? Should I find out if the original kit had different spring rate options?
So many questions.....
