Icon7 Distributor

Hey guys
I need a new distributor for my b18c and was wondering if I need to get a distributor specific for a type r or if I can get one off a c2 or any other Honda engines.
If so could someone point me in the right direction to where I can source a second hand one in Sydney.
Thanks in advance!

Why are you replacing the distributor ??? If you have a TDC, CYP, or CKP code (Codes 4,8,and 9), damaged shaft bearings or a compromised shaft oil seal... then you are on the right track. If you have no spark... replace the coil and/or igniter in your perfectly good distributor housing. Many people make this mistake and end up with a cheap POS auto parts store housing and turn in their quality OE honda part for a core.

Sounds like a mint lineup man.
The distributor works, it just makes a clicking noise noise and gets really irritating. Im in no rush to replace it, although I wouldn't mind finding out my options now as I am trying to budget for a bunch of car parts in the very near future.
I would definitely go genuine Honda parts, I am just looking at which ones will fit my engine as trying to find a distributor off a type r is very hard.
