No experience of 5th's, myself, or 4th's for that matter, but welcome along, I'm sure plenty of other people will have advice for you regards your particular model.

Welcome to the club bud

What kind of advice are you after?... Maintenance, performance upgrades, body options?

You're probably not going to want to hear this, but depending on your age/years driving, the easiest, biggest and cheapest way to get more performance is to go for a Vtec lude. Depending on the model you'll potentially gain 70bhp just like that

Of course it will increase your insurance. So how old are you if you don't mind me asking?

Body wise, what style floats your boat?

Going to be 24 this year and I know the 2.2 VTEC would be better option and with body mods anything such as lighting and other body mods that will help with handling and aero dynamics
