How bout a lightweight battery? that saves quite a bit of weight especially how it is at the front drivers side of the engine bay.
By the way...all those mods and no subframe connectors?!?! you should get some man. Also do somemore suspension mods as I heard aftermarket K members save A LOT of weight...and front coilover conversions

scrape off all the sound deadening, go with a tubular K member and coil overs front and rear, go with a liughtweight battery(and move it to the rear), ditch the rear spoiler(every bit helps), and any other appearance crap you have.

you can take off that 10 lb hunk of steel under the pumpkin. remove hood insulation, rubber gasket on cowl behind hood.
heres a good list http://www.modularrevolution.com/Weight.htm
if you wanna get crazy, use up all your washer fluid and put back 2 oz. and take off those useless seat belt guides on the seat lol
