    First, Congrats on the purchase!

    It Kinda depends on your budget and if it's going to be a daily driver/ track/ drift car . Regardless the route the aftermarket support you have is as big as you could hope for with this car.

    Suspension is a great place to start. To keep the balance of these cars when you upgrade the wheels and tires you will want to make sure that you don't forget about sway bars, control arms, etc.

    I have raced my car in stock classes and have been out performed by slower cars due to my tires. The suspension and tire stock will give you .9 G so you can really enjoy the car on a budget. I suggest some basic BPU "basic part upgrade" to start recommend front camber bolts, tires, exhaust, Perrin intake and to take spare tire and jack stuff out with back seats for a nice 40lbs weight loss. Also front sway bar is nice, I used cusco 22mm and fitment oem quality

    For drifting the first thing would likely be suspension.. But personally I'd just learn how to drift the car as is for now.
