SE's and SVT's are both GS cars when stock. I would highly recommend learning how to drive your car before doing any modifications at all, and then do a little at a time.
To stay stock, you need to keep the same wheels that came with the car (because you can't find 4x108 wheels in stock widths). The simple suspension upgrades take you to STS; an LSD would mean STX. After that, welcome to Street Prepared.
Most car clubs have Street Tire classes which mean that you're not competing with a Celica GT on Hoosiers straight up (the national winner in GS for the past couple of years).
Good luck, have fun, and *definitely* read The Secrets of Solo Racing by Henry Watts.
