Default New Member, new (used) integra

I'm a new member and I just bought a project integra. My first (and only previous) car was a 2000 Ford Contour SVT. I have been an avid enthusiast of Hondas/Acuras for a couple of years (YES - even though I was driving a Ford).

It's a 94 Integra RS (I believe since there is no sunroof). I'm not quite sure what options there are and it's not running yet. It has what appears to be a B18C1, ceramic DC Headers, a Greddy Evo catback, noname coilovers around KYB AGX shocks. It's got a JDM rad support and fenders, but the headlights, front bumper, and hood were stolen (which is why I got the car cheap).

During the theft, the theives cut the steering wheel (I assume to get "the club" off of it), cut the alarm, keyed much of the body, stole the subs and back seat, stereo equip, door panels, battery, distributor, spark plug wires, intake (everything filter-side of the TB), and cut the hell outta the alarm.

I will get pics up when I get a camera, but my main question is: what are the six or so metal pipes located just behind the passenger headlight (near where the stock airbox is). Power steering, brakes, something of the like? The car doesn't seem to have anything in that corner of the engine compartment.

Also, the seller had a key lock, but somehow lost it (or didn't give it to me). He said he bought the lock at Kragen. It appears to be the same pattern as my mother's stock Honda keylock, but with a larger diameter pattern and overall bolt diameter. Does anyone have any ideas on how to find out what brand keylock it is or where I might get one? My first step is going to be to check the local autoparts stores (Kragen, PepBoys, etc).

More questions:

- What distributors should work with my OBD1 GSR engine? (what about an OBD1 B16 dist?)
- What size battery does a DC2 take? I've seen one store that says 51. I'm specifically looking for an Optima.
- What's a good intake for a GSR? I like the looks of the J's Racing / Password JDM carbon fiber intakes shaped like slugs. I Don't like the AEM-style pipes, but i am in CA and do need to worry about CARB exempt parts. Has anyone compiled a grid/table of options for us?

Please feel free to buzz in with any questions/comments.
