RPMS Stick 3-4k in first..then second

Well I finally got my car started after 3 weeks of being w/o due to a bad ignitor...and I felt the same problem I had before it died..
Occasionally outta first gear when I accelerate my RPMS stick between 3-4k...I am "forced" to shift into 2nd due to not being able to advance the RPMS...it'll then occasionally do the same thing in 2nd.....so I go to third and then I can go right back into second and it'll take off.......I haven't really found a good explanation or an answer as to what to look into?.....this is a OBD2 JDM GSR.....in my EK.....runnin OBD1 ECU.........

any ideas what to look at.....

Do you have a friends with the same distributor that you can trade with for testing? I know you changed the ignitor, but a different distributor completley may solve the problem.
