Yes the Power transistor, crank angle sensor and ignition coil are all in the distributor assembly of a 1.8 DSM. I'm not sure where you got the term ignition control module, but to me that equates to the old term 'brain box'. In this case that would be the MPI control unit otherwise known as the ECU. This item is in the same location for all 1G DSM's, in the front of the center console, but behind the heater. Basically it's right below the back side of your radio.
Good luck with it... -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
