A few things.
First, HeFf does have power-assisted brakes. Turn the engine off and pump the pedal a few times. You'll find that it gets very hard after a few pumps. That's because the vacuum has bled out of the booster.
Second, I suggest a grille-block for help in warming up the engine.
Don't completely trust the fuel gauge--the ones in my CRXes were pretty nonlinear, and would move much more slowly at the top and much more quickly near the bottom. It might be good to keep a gallon of gas in a can just in case the gauge is very far off...
The crxcommunity.com is a great BBS focused on the CRX. Lots of knowledge there, and it's less of a morass of locker-room talk and intolerance than many automotive BBSes.
Find and download the service manual for the car. There are PDFs available on-line in a few places. The Helm's manual is the same as the factory manual (as far as I can tell) and is one of the better workshop manuals that I have seen.
Careful with the 'Rex, they are not the most robust platforms in a collision! They sure are fun, and can be exceedingly efficient as you are finding.
