Yeah, i agree, better get good tyres first before rim. But in my case, cannot get good tyre for my 14" rim, so need to get both rim n tyres then. Maybe it is good idea to get secondhand original rpf1 so can save some money then use it for good tyres, but wondering how to identify the rim is original? Lets say for rpf1, just enough has "made in japan", or maybe based on weight? Any thoughts?

Based on weight if RPF1 coz the fakes can never match the lightness. Even better if you can observe first a sample of the original so you can pin point the details then use that as the reference. Pay attention to the markings/stampings at the back, usually the fakes will not match those and they will say made in Thailand/Taiwan etc2. or designed by Japan.

Start with good tires, and any rims. U not doing rally or saja drive fast over poth holes.
Then save for lightweight ori rims.
