No, the K8 plugs and wires are all the same to the ZE.

You're better off to get a set for the MX-6. They're a little longer and allow you to route them the way the ZE is normally done.

He's correct! the 7mm NGK wires are the best.

Yeah they're crazy expensive because of the design of the plug caps. Try ebay.

Yea those would work bu u'd have to wait for em to come... go to lordco and get a set of NGK wires with the account number 21798 and they should be like 100-110 CAD.
