GSR won't even crank ! worked fine 2 minutes ago WTF.
Started the car realized i forgot something turned the car off for no more than 2 mins. come back out IT WON'T even crank no clicking no nothing fuel pump primes but that's about it. the cap and rotor are on there last legs if not shot all ready shot but would that cause it not to crank even ? it's ALWAYS started i've never had truouble with it like this ever !
I don't want to underestimate your intelligence, but what all have you checked?
I'm asking this because a lot of times if your battery terminal isn't really tight you can still get a lot of the low amperage components to work without the ability to crank.
If the battery is okay, try jumping it. If that doesn't work I'd check the starter.
I'm not sure if this is something the previous owner did with my car or if all integras are like this but I don't need to push in the clutch to start my car, if yours requires that, I'd start there.
Bad cap and rotor will still crank, at least my obd1 did when the rotor and IC was bad.
That's about the best advice I can give you so far, sorry if I wasn't much help.

Main relay possibly or bad connection as mentioned. I have had issues where I had no power due to corrosion on my cables.
The PGM-FI Main Relay has nothing to do with engine cranking.
As mentioned, this sounds like a connection problem or possibly a bad starter relay, with no sounds at all, I assume you mean not even a "click" from under the dash, [starter relay]. 94

Woops, I miss read as the fuel pump didn't even turn on. I had problems not long ago where I would turn the key and nothing happened. The main relay was my solution.
Fcm is correct!!!

Cleaned the terminals today lots or blue stuff on the pos one. My civic had this problem except i knew it was the neg battery cable not being on tight the bolt snapped so it was clamped in via a C clamp(don't laugh at me lol). but also today i tried to start it up but my battery had gone dead. To add my posts in the dizzy cap are basicly ground down to nothing ! and the rotor is scraped pretty badly car has a HORRID miss cyl#1 is getting no spark. i not drving the car as of now cap+rotor are on order.
