Default help i cant find a distributor.

i have a 97 accord jdm h22a.my distributor started grinding and finally it started missing so bad that i pulled it off but i can find a new one anywhere or used for that matter.i looked at the date stamped on the head and it is saying 91 so i guess that means 92 and i have bought the distributor for a 92 prelude and its different. i have tried several different makes and models even paid $462 for a jdm through advance with no luck.they are all external cois and mine is internal.the new ones dont come with the coil so i though i could just swap mine out but there are no wires to attach to it.im sure someone on here has been through this so if you have any suggestions or can help me at all please let me know.thanks

There are a few import places near me in Ontario (don't know where your from) terrible customer service, but they often have pretty nice used JDM parts that are decently priced.

Google Toronto JDM

There are a bunch of them Total JDM is the one I dislike the most but they have a **** load of inventory....
