2001 Civic Tune Up and Basic Questions

Whats up Honda owners. I'm getting an 01 Honda Civic sedan in a week or 2. I'm not sure if it's a LX or EX but I know it's not the basic model. It has at least 120,000 miles on it so I figured I'll give it a tune up as soon as I get it. Here are my questions -

- What type of oil is recommended? What about oil filters? I'm going to change it every 5,000 miles.
- What type of spark plugs? Should I just go to Auto Zone and get some NGK ones? Or to the dealership/order oem online?
- What about the air filter? What type is best?
- Same question for the cabin filter/fuel filter.
- I'll check the timing belt/water pump. Where should I go get these parts if I need to replace them?

Am I missing anything else I should do when it gets in my hands? Thanks everyone
