No. The GSR distributor is VTEC. It's wired differently.

Get a remanufactured one with a lifetime warranty from your average parts store. The new Honda dealer part won't have a warranty. It will also cost 3x more than the average parts store will, too.

Take the one you've already got in with you when you buy your remanufactured distributor. Make sure they're the same unit. Make sure the one you get is the one from your engine's donor car. Swap over any screws or rotor button/dust shields while you're in there getting the new one so you don't have to pay core charges or come back to the parts store later (i.e. bring a phillips and a flat-head with you just in case).

No point in spending new part money on it when you'll be swapping it out with a different engine/distributor later, right?
