NZ Ignition Coils -still not sure where to get them

Been doing some searching around and still not 100% sure where to get them from.

leaning towards rotary fx or a ebay kit maybe mazmart if they ship to nz.

This seems alright but is that the new type of coils apparently theres a and b type?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/IGNIT...item45fbb6f661

Would go BHR but read it gives a warning light on jdm RX8? if so not keen on that as kind of trying to sell the car..

These look interesting but out of my price range.

OKADA PROJECTS PLASMA DIRECT IGNITION COIL
OKADA PLASMA DIRECT IGNITION COIL 03-08 RX-8 SE3P | eBay

At the moment id probably go with rotary fx...
Where are people in aus/nz getting there coils any feedback?

Mazda was after $150-$160 a coil.

Regards Branton

I contacted BHR recently as I'm looking at getting some coils and spark plugs and they will send to NZ. Have a look at my other thread for the prices from BHR: https://www.rx8club.com/australia-new-zealand-sale-wanted-149/tune-up-kit-226748/

These guys replied recently and said they would send to NZ as well:

The BHR kit is a specialty item that can only be bought directly from BHR. But if you are in AZ, then you could buy them in person.

If you are worried about getting ripped off, don't. Charles from BHR is the epitome of a stand up guy and BHR's customer service is second to none.

If you want the standard ones i'd recommend mazmart.
I got coils & NGK plugs and leads from them havent had any problems since.

Buying parts online seems to be the way to go...

BHR are lovely RockAuto are fine unless they **** up - then they are worse than useless. Wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. Unreliable, unresponsive and a complete ...arggggg

Parts late, parts wrong, charged to ship wrong parts etc.

EDIT: Sorry just realized the RockAuto recommendation is ancient. They are just getting on my nerves today.
