I believe that there are hitachi, and TAK (or some **** like that). Either way I don't think it matters (I changed out ICMs tak to hitachi it ran fine), used different dizzies on different cars.

What's wrong with your dizzy?

Oh yeah for wires get some NGKs blues. Used it on couple of cars work as good as factory ones. Don't buy non of the generic **** in autozone.
