Hondaautomotiveparts.com still lists those parts with current prices.
Spoiler isn't cheap though...

I'm a big fan of Jacobs stuff
I had the OMni pack on my 86 Si, and it worked great until the coil started to arch clean trhough the boot of the coil wire. It just burned right through the boot, and would shoot an arch over an inch to ground to a mounting bracket under load. I had not used their wire since it wasn't long enough, so I made my own from Packard 440 wire (16 strand silver plated coper core... supposed to be the best from the old skool...and it worked great, but the boot I used wasn't up to it.).
It's got power, and it was clearly better at high RPM (>4000) than stock.
Also used the milage master (blue box) on an MGB for the last 12 years, and it's excellent.
I use they plug gapping tool, the boost master in my supercharged MG, their indexing washers, and even have the book Dr Jacobs wrote. It started with the milage master, and then I just kept buying and the stuff just kept doing a better job than other stuff I'd tried (but never tried the obvious competiton from MSD).
I think I still have a pro-pak from a 1988-1991 civic (also 88-89 teg) if anyone is interested. Sold the car, kept the pro-pak.

195 can be a little tight in the back. I've had a 195 Yoko that barely fit and BF Goodrich 195 that hit the left fender of my 86 civic Si on every bump. Might be better if the car is not lowered since lowering tends to push the rear axle just a tad to the left of center. Mine was lowered about an inch and a half.

Once the car reaches 25 years old, it no longer has to meet the emissions and crash standards for import. i have a number of friends that have brought the older british cars in very easily that way now... even ones that never came here like the Rover V8 powered MGB. I brought in a 1976 Mini in spring 2001 when it reached 25 years old. The only difficulty then is getting the car registered (you really do actually need the foreign title, the transport papers from the shipping company, and the rest you can create as needed by your state if you have a cooperative notary).
Containers are expensive, but if the car can't be started and driven by any idiot, then you pretty much need a container (they only hire idiots... expect damage). From the Uk to the east coast US, it used to cost just less than shipping it by truck from NYC to LA, though I haven't tried to bring one in since 9/11. Its almost certainly different now.
When shipping from US to europe, we used to use the company below. you can do it all online, plus they had a drop off yard about 15 miles from me. you can use them to import as well.

Bringing cars in tended to be foreign port dependant on which company to use. When the car shows up at the docks, bring a roll of $50 bills... it's the only way to make things go smoothly and quickly, at least in Jersey. expect to peel of a few just to get them to pay attention to you, and even then, expect to spend most of the day trying to get it done. Show up at noon, and you'll be back the next day to finish relasing the car unless you brought a roll of $100s instead of $50s. It's an all day event some times, others it's realitively quick.
Sometimes it's just better to hire an import broker to get the job done, but they aren't cheap, or fast either.

CRX is longer than hatch... not going to fit the 3dr. I got mine at Autozone. The had the exact one (I actually only replaced one because with two it's two darn stiff. the new one from autozone was nearly an exact match to the Honda one (only the color of the tag was different). $10.98 In case the link below doesn't work, it's under parts / trim accessories / supports when you look it up by car.
