Congratulations man, I wish you the best of luck with it. Mine is also my first.

Just keep it clean, don't rice it out, and when you see what your high school friends do with their car...just generally try not to copy it. If you take care of the engine, then you'll have a great car for a long time, and you already have a clean-looking and fresh platform to start modding from.

Good luck.

What would you recommend doing to it?

I want to get a body kit, but I lack something very important... Money.

I also was going to get a chip to increase the horsepower a tad, but I read that Celicas can't be chipped because of the override or whatever...

...So yeah. Lmao.
