subframe connectors arent really to important for a close to stock gt, your not really making enough power at this point for the subframe connectors to really do much of anything imo. but speaking from experience gears and an sct tune are the 2 things that made the biggest difference for me. or just save up and buy a blower!

If I could do it all over:
1) Gears and tune
2) Full exhaust
3) Wheels/Tires
4) Suspension
Cold air intakes really don't do anything for ours, so just get a drop in K&N.
Fuel injectors would only be needed if you did something drastic like threw on a supercharger or something, then you would need to change the fuel pump, injectors, that sort of thing.
All I can say is read read and read.

If I could do it all over:
1) Built motor/Trans
2) Gears/Built rear/Exhaust
3) Heads/cams/Intake
4) Suspension/wheels & tires
5) TT or BLower
This is basically the way i did it minus the blower and built motor/trans/rear
Most people, including myself, want that instant power from their mods. Looking back on it now it would've been smarter to build everything up first and i could make more than twice the power i have now.
OP it all depends on what your plans are. Im a freshman in college and my car is my DD. For me to have a street/strip car would be senseless right now because my commute is about 40 minutes mainly highway and i would be getting horrible gas milage. My car has enough for me to run it at the track but works for my DD needs. Once i get out of college however its going to be a nasty street/strip car haha. Your best bet is to tell us your future plans and we can point you in the right direction.
