Default Need help with GSR pistions

Ok i picked up a 94 GSR 2day (2200) and it didnt run but i slapped a new dizzy on it and it started up but only thing is its running on 2 pistions =( SO can i take piston 2 and 3 out without taking the head off????? hears what i got when i pull the spark plug wire it makes no effect on cylinder 2,3 So i went and got new plugs and wires installed them correctly(i checked about 5 times and called up the local tuner shop(speedfactory in WA) and i got it right. I have helped take pistions out of a Ls before when it was blown but the head was already off. i dont want 2 take the head off at all. so can i take the pistions out and install the new pistion rings by just taking the oil pan off and **** under the crank off. Can i do it is my question?????

cylinder 1: 175
cylinder 2: 115
cylinder 3: 120
cylinder 4: 183
This was cold numbers i havent drivin it much just bout 30 miles back 2 my house from where i got it. The car sat 4 bout 6 months and before it ran fine on all cylinders(this integra used 2 be a buddys of mine)

yes but very difficult no way to push pistons down through the block just hope ur strong and able to pull the out of the bottom but like i said very difficult why dont you want to pull the head off? i got a gsr swap and it took me about 2 hours to get headers and intake manifold off undo the wire harness from everywhere and pull the head off if ur not very familiar with honda motors take lots of pics to refer to and label all ur nuts and bolts in separate bags and what the go to go buy a honda manual book it will tell u everything

sounds much more diffucult to do than taking off head. Also have you verifyed for a certain why you are running on 2 cylinders. youve checked spark, but what about injectors. It may not be, but just in case check if the injectors are clogged or if faulty wiring exists.

Im pretty strong and ive helped rebuild an ex friends ls turbo like 3 times since he never learned 15psi at the street races dosnt last long on stock block. i know the ways in and out of them have owned bout 10 honda's. ive looked for the book but never can find it anywhere. there a link or something as a pic of the bottom of the block and torq spec's on the bolts so i dont over tighten them?? that would be very apprecitated.

Also new question? i was driving it and there was like a rev limit at 4.5k where it would just cut and wouldnt go any higher. ECU is a p28 chipped. i am goin 2 get it retuned after i put in new pistion rings.
