I think we all know where the father's business is, because of the entrance - but is the main part of that location the same? Where MK is on top of the lift?

And where is that scene where the fight is with MK and RC when the boy turns up "I only want to perfect my throwing"?

It might be just a set at Universal.

The place where Michael and RC fight at the chinese temple is located at 3441 Waverly Drive at the corner of W Los Feliz Park and Waverly Drive in Los Angeles.

Here you can see the street where KITT comes driving up after Michael calls to him from his Comlink and he comes driving around the corner and up Waverly Street, then enters the gated driveway to what is actually a place called Timothy Manning House of Prayer for Priests. If you look at the house on the other side of the street from the entrance to Timothy Manning, you can see it hasn't changed much.

If you play your DVD at 33:09, you can see KITT coming out from Surry St N and turning onto Waverly Drive, then driving up and drifting around into the entrance of Timothy Manning on West Los Feliz Park. Unfortunately Google Maps doesn't let you drive up that road for some reason.
