Congrats on your purchase! Sounds like you're starting with all the right things to begin with to me. I know suspension has been said, but first on the suspension list should probably be sub-frame connectors. Not that expensive, and help quite a bit.

Congrats again.

^^ What he said. Also, you should include some common maintenance items in the plan while you are at it -- flush the cooling system, replace the other fluids and filters, check the hoses and belts, lube the caliper pins on the brakes, etc...
