For top of the line steaks, I never marinate, might use rubs or spices, but dont marinate.
Now on the other hand, if you are doing a flank steak, this works well:
1/2 cup soya sauce
1/4 cup oil
1 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp mustard powder
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic powder or 2 minced cloves of garlic
2 TBsp dark molasses
Put in a container that you can cover and shake. Refrigerate, shaking or turning steak every hour or so. I like to marinate 6 to 8 hours, so start early in the day, barbecue for your evening meal. Flank steak should never be cooked till well done, medium at most. Let sit 5 to 10 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.
