Default [Q] Install google playstore manually in remICS-jb-4.2 rom

i have recently installed remICS-jb - 4.2.1 rom on my captivate .. and m loving this rom. but the thing is, it doesnt come with google play store installed.. so yes, i tried to flash Gapps but it gets stuck into bootloop . so i had to clean install the rom again (factory reset, wipe, install) ...

i installed many playstore.apk (every version) but they just start and then force closes (no dialouge is shown... it just closes itself after like 2 seconds) . i even copied the playstore.apk in /system/apps but that didn't help. i even rebooted many times after installing the apk.

So, finally i figured the only way left is to flash it via CWM . is there any google android market.zip file to flash via CWM ? if not, please give alternate ways.

Hey... is there some tutorial for install gapps? I installed cyogenmod Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and like your ROM it does not have google play.

Please help.

Grab their specific Gapps and flash them in recovery.
