8) I have one too...1987 RS....245,000 miles and still gets 32 mpg on the highway with all of my performance add-ons. Very rare color too, Sonic Metallic Blue.
As for parts, yes they are hard to find, but I have been able to use parts from other cars on my Gen1. An example would be for adjustable cam timing gears...Timing gears from the 92-99 SOHC Honda Accord engine will fit a D16A1 engine...you just have to order two gears instead of one. The part number is C21-127 from Venom. They definitely helped mine with midarange torque and the car has a nice "lope" while idling through the exhaust.
