Might buy '99 S70 T5 - what to look for? S70

I'm going to look at a '99 manual S70 T5 sedan tonight - are there any common areas of concern to look for? It has 31k miles, according to the dealer. I'm considering this car to replace my modified Integra, because I'm terrified of the Integra getting stolen :(

If I get it, ECU upgrade, filter and exhaust will quickly be installed. What other mods are available? How much power can be made with a relatively-stock engine (ie internals), and how much can the driveline take before I start breaking things?

What sort of suspension upgrades are there? I'm looking to use this car for on-track driving schools, as well as around-town fun...

Thanks!
