Default Its time for a tune up what wires should I use?

My 98 Z has 104k and I can tell it needs a tune up. I did the fuel filter last weekend. I am gonna run a NGK plug, but what wires? I was thinking MSD. and also are there any special tools Ill need to do it other then the right socket to take them out? I also noticed number 4 on the passenger side is gonna be a pain, is that one accesable from the bottom? All the others look fine as far as me getting them in and out.

My wires $68 with plugs to your door 8.5mm Superconductor wires and your choice of heat range on the NGK from TR55-10

Yes the #8 is a PIA and some do get it from underneath. Take the coil packs off and it makes things a lot easier.

I used your wires and they are great! The dielectric grease already on there was a plus, as I would have forgot lol. A+
