Nishiki Modulus 12-speed... Upgrades???

Hi! I'm new here. I recently bought a 63cm Nishiki modulus off craigslist for $140. It has exage brakes and shimano 300ex components. I love it! But the whole bike is pretty worn down. By the way, is it very difficult to straighten out or replace rims? I sort of seems like both my tires don't rotate 360 degrees in one perfect straight line (looking at the brakes while in motion). Oh yeah, and they're Araya rims, they might have been a replacement?

I've heard of Ultegra shifters and they sound interesting. I looked them up and they seem to be 10 speed only? My bike is 12 speed.

Basically.. I don't know much about bikes (this is my first road bike!). But I am more than willing to learn and experiment perhaps upgrading the bike myself. I have access to a wealth of tools and such. It would be ideal if someone can give me some links to exactly what products I can order to upgrade my bike. Thanks!

Oh and here's a picture!
