Here's that start up video.
Excuse the crappy phone quality, you can at least hear how smooth the start up is though.
Whenever I figure out what's keeping her from firing I'll post a higher quality video.
But to keep you guys entertained:

Not sure of this is relevant/ result of no spark condition (( almost sure it is )).
But I tried starting it last night and noticed a slow crank, almost like a compression test cranking... Any ideas ?
If I'm not wrong, it seems like it might in fact be what 94EG8 suggested (( igniter, coil ))
This weekend I'll try to make time and take a look at it.

97 Ferio:
gL with everything man, as long as you have all your parts and time, it'll be a breeze.
I just didn't have enough time to devote to the swap which is why she's not out yet hahah.
@ 94EG8:
Thanks bro I'll be checking back man no rush... I'll do some researching myself.

Bizzump.
Haven't really done anything since my last post...
Time isn't on my side so its going to be a bit slow until she's finished...
But again, any specific testing procedures on testing the igniter// dizzy ?

Diagrams for the coil test and ICM input test can be found in the FAQs sticky of the 92-00 Civic/Del Sol forum. Here they are:
There is a direct test for the ICM, but it's a bit complicated, so most people take their ICM to an auto parts store for testing.

Sorry guys, haven't even touched her since that last post, been busy prepping for my girl's baby shower at my house for the past week, baby shower on Saturday and she could pop any day now :D
So yea family first and my daughter goes before everything so the coupe can wait a few days// weeks... I turned the ls over a few times but I didn't want to flood it.
I'll be posting back with more progress, sorry again for the delay...
I can try and snag some pics of how she's sitting now, put the hood back on.
Lol.
I'll post back next week.
