What's wrong with yours?
If you are handy with tools and you are not affraid to open the distributor, you can rebuild it using all the components from a 88-91 CRX Si or HF.
You can even use the CRX distributor (Except a DX one) on your B16.
You will have to modify the mounting legs to make it fit, but it will get you back on the road until you find a B16 distributor or fix yours.
My friend is using a 91 CRX HF distributor on his B18C5. No problems and he runs mid 12's with it.

From what I've heard. You have to get yours rebuilt at like NAPA or any place that does it because you have to keep the housing.

if you cant do any of that.. you can use a 90-91 integra one... with a little bit of modifying.

90 to 91 integra
I think with that cap and rotor we had to remove a protective housing in the SiR dizzy to make it work because the rotor was a different design. No biggie, though.
