thank you
(I'm going to assume your talking about distributor vs. distributorless ignition)
My vote is for the distributor.
I've owned 2 NXs with distributors now, and 100% never had a problem in the 6 years I've had them in my driveway. They allow you to adjust timing using just a timing light. With electronically controlled ignition, you've got to plug a scan tool or some device in, and thats if you can adjust. Electronically controlled ignition works, but I like being able to change mine.
