Yes...along w/the 'teg's rear brake flex line and e-brake cables of course. Note: the 'teg's ebrake cables are longer in length then the 1g/3g's, but, just use the rhs on the left and vice versa; swapping the sides uses up the extra length

Can't say for sure, but don't get your hopes up.

Every 13" aluminum wheel (Mugen/Honda) that I've tried has interfered with the rear Integra calipers. The Integra front rotors are larger in diameter than the stock rotors, but there will still be about 1/8" of clearance between the caliper and the inside rim of a 13" wheel. The Integra rear rotors are smaller than the fronts, but the caliper has a little more width which causes it to interfere with the wheel.

The aluminum rear drums ONLY came on the 85-87 CRX HF. New, they are pricey. Check with the junkyard for used one with some life left in them.

Remember, you will want to change the rear brake backing plates to HF plates to allow the aluminum drums to fit.

The REAL problem with the rears is the integra's heat shield. That thing is gi-normous and won't clear anything under 14" (you can always trim or even omit it).
