Old shape Civic 1.6 VTi-Opinions?

[The DJ 27]

Just found out that they're not as expensive as I thought they'd be. The 98-2000 cars, probably a three door is what I'd be after. Anyone got any experience of what they're like to drive. And how much tuning potential is there? I know I won't be able to get massive power gains a-la all the turbo-nuttermobile owners on here :gits:
