Modding my first car - Which Civic should I get?

Hey everyone.
I joined the forum today because I would like to mod my first car, and I am leaning heavily towards modding a Civic. I have always driven a Civic but never got into modding one. I was wondering if I could get everyone's opinions.
Which generation is the best to mod, where is the best place to get parts and after-market parts, and anything you all wish you did or didn't do.
I heard that the Civic 1992-2000 was a good year to go for.
Thanks crew,
Max
*Also, which model do you guys recommend. Because there are way more Civic models than I remember hahah.

88-91 is also a great chassis to work with, but parts for those are becoming tough to find.
92-00 is IMO, the last two great generations of easy and fun to mod Civics'.

Figure out what your budget is and what you want to look for, sedan, coupe or hatch, then that will help you figure out which trim you'd like to start with.

If you’re looking to fully mod it out where it isn’t a daily driver, I recommend si models or type r simply because it’s hard to get parts for non si. Plus easier to k swap later down the road with si models for k20s or k24

That's not true and I'm not sure where you got this info from, especially when it comes to 5th to 6th gen, which is what the original post mentioned.
