your going to have to get the block bored and honed. Check with a reputable machine shop for price. $150??
I would then check an online acura parts dealer or your local dealer for the cost of a set of oversize(.010") p72(gsr) pistons or oversize P73 (ITR) pistons and rings. $350??
Then gaskets $100
many more little things but you just have to use the vast ammount of resources that are available and do research. Yellow pages, Online, and H-T

Well I am not looking to change pistons. I would like to but don't have the money right now. Just looking to change the rings and whatever else has to be done to get it back on the road. I have some traveling to do next month.

just make sure you seat the rings properly. Follow you handa service manual carefully and stay to specs. Make sure you get your block re-honed also. Goodluck.

I'm in the process of doing exactly that myself. I orginaly planned to reuse my pistons/rods and just replace the rings and bearings. When I took the block to the machine shop the cylinders were egg shapped and needed to be bored. The bore/hone cost me $25 per cyl. As for your plan, if your cylinders are round then go for it. New ring set will cost you $35 per cyl oem and bearings run about $230ish. Thats for the ten mains, eight rod bearings, and the two thrust washers. If you need to go oversized. Go .020/.5mm over and you can get the p72s for about 40ish a piece oem. If you get new pistions, wrist pins will come with so don't buy extra ones. While you got it apart get the crank polished, and have the head/block checked for warpage and trued out. My machining cost me $600, for the bore/hone/polish and a 3 angle valve job on .5mm oversize valves. I actually have a new oem set of p72 rings in standard size and wrist pins. If your block checks out email me at mid_knight@hotmail.com for them. I also have the original pistons/rods if you need them for some reason or if you want all #2 rods or somethin Get yourself a helms manual so you can read the bearing codes and get the right bearing color. Or, just get the codes and email me, I'll tell you want color you need.
