I was wondering, before I get underneath my Celica has anyone encountered sounds that are similar to bad bushings out back? What did it end up being?
Are there better parts to instal? I plan on doing suspension mods to tighten up the feel as well as compliment handling.
Shocks and struts
New springs mild drop preferred
Polyeurathane bushing replacements
Motor mounts
Strut tower brace
Larger Calipers and rotors slotted
Any info on known upgrades will be a great help

I am reading through the stickies .

You have to describe the problem a little better, in order for people to be able to actually answer.
Upgrading sway bars and endlinks will significantly improve the handling. I would likely do those before strut tower braces, or larger brakes. Also, Polyurethane bushings can be quite the pain to do, as the trailing arms in the rear are known to be difficult to remove.

I'd probably do struts and a lowering spring, and then sway bars and end links first.

Quick question, Exactly Which bushings did you find that needed replacing?
I also have a rattle in the back of my car, the struts, strut mounts, and endlinks are new in my car, so I'm also puzzled as to where the rattling is coming from.

Found the rattle, it was my mufflers heat shield that came loose.
