Let me know if you have any other questions.

Ok I read what u did but want I want to do is eliminate the stock distridutor completely. Is there an aftermarket coil setup to do this.

You can't eliminate the distributor. You can change to an aftermarket coil & an aftermarket ignition unit. You have to realize that the distributor works off the engine to control the timing of the sparks.

how about that msd unit that will make the car a distributorless ignition ? you distributorless ignitions exist, and my dad has one in his subaru, my mom has one in her buick. what are the advantages of DI over one with a distributor ?

Honestly I wasn't aware that you could convert a Honda distributor type ignition to DIS. If you find the product post the link.
The big advantage is no moving parts. Less to break. A friend of mines has DIS in his truck. It came that way stock though.

there are some mods to be done to the car tho. the ignitions are at summit

what kind of mods

Honestly can't help you on that one. The best bet is to replace the stock coil & unit with ones from MSD.

MSD 6BTM
MSD Blaster 3 Coil
NGK Spark Plug Wires
MSD Pro-Cap Distributor Cap

http://www.summitracing.com has all of these. You can get them all for under $300.

you can make your own dis the only thing that's needed to FULLY eliminate the dist. (ie it's gone and there's a plugged hole where it was)
is a crankposition sensor, a plug for the dist. hole, a computer to read the sensor and send a spark signal to the coil or coils.
