See if you have access to use an 95' OBD1 AUTO ecu see if it starts fine.. if it does then i am pretty sure it's your tach wire. (YES, the Alarm goes through the tach wire, so might just be the installer been stupid and fuked it up)
just a thought~ Good luck to you

Yea I gotta call around to make a appt. 'cause my friend hooked me up with the car through a friend of his and his friend got the alarm installed through another friend and he's kinda blowing me off ? We were supposed to take the car yesterday to get checked out but it never happened.. So I now gotta call around to make a appt. Which i think is BS cause my friend hooked me up with the car through another friend they should be the one to help me out. Oh well. I will let youknow how it goes though.. ( i dont know if this is true or relevant.. but my other friend said sometimes the ignitions start to go with my model of integra ?)

hey Babe, ask the alarm installer to double check and maybe rewire your tach wire.. it happened to me before.. took me a week to find out jsut a lose tach wire so the car won't start.

In your case i dont think so.. coz your's 95' OBD 1 doesn't have imobolizer(starter kill), so don't think your friend's friend would **** around with it.. coz there is nothing to do with the ignition while he install the alarm. (00+ OBD2V2 teg has immobizer funtion)
Reason why i said to check your tach is coz.. i went through the same problem after i did my auto to manual conversion + OBD1 ECU CONVERSION.. anyways, i will make it short.. after the swap, my car does not start with 5 speed at all.. but with my auto ECU doesn?? so thought taht might be from the ignition.. meaning the immoblizer function still operats after we took the ECU out? kinda immpossible but we did thought that might be it. nah~ wrong
so then we checked and checked.. thought that we might cooked the 95 ECU or soemthing so we pulled 3 cars in just to test.. but all cars started fine..and even my Skunk2 harness was right tooo..
Anyways, after a week or so.. i was driving home and got pretty mad coz of the car wont start with my 5 speed ECU.. so i kicked the panel~~ then result just a lose tach wire, so problem solved. ^^
