you'll find that there is no other way to get decent suspension in the front other than buying coilovers from japan or going the full custom route. as far as i'm aware, the shocks are built into the actual strut, so there is no removable insert, but i haven't tried to see if they come apart yet. in the event that you get them apart, i wish you luck trying to find a shock insert small enough to go in there haha.
