KF-DE is about 104kw at the fly.
KF-ZE is about 125kw at the fly.
If you have an Australian delivered V6 then it's a KF-DE

and there is more to it than just the engine.

The KF-ZE is the original engine. For foreign markets Mazda de-tuned this engine to the KF-DE. it has slightly lower compression, milder cam shafts and the ECU has a 'safe' tune as well as other small changes. To get the most out of a KF-DE to KF-ZE swap you would also swap the ECU.
As far as I know the wiring is identical.
