-smaller, lighter battery
-wheels/tires
-trunk lid (i think there are some plastic ones that are lighter)
-look out for brackets where stuff is/was mounted to, they're often connected to the chassis by point welds which can be removed, it's not much to save, but it's still a few pounds maybe
Flywheel, driveshaft, and other rotating mass will count for a lot more than stationary weight reductions when it comes to performance gains.
Hello. I like you.
Convert to true rear coilovers and replace rear spring arms with tubular
aluminum front control arms
get the smallest brakes you can fit 323/320
abs module
brake booster (aftermarket pedal box or boosterless setup by Massive/Chase Bays)
always trying to make it lighter and faster
