K member replacement is a hugey. other than that you've got most of them listed there aside from roll cage.

I've seen shock tower braces but most roll cages add reenforcement there anyway.

get some weld in full lengths and a 6 or 10 point cage and that goes a LONG way right there. And maybe a strut tower brace to stablize everything from the firewall forwards.

a good subframe connector will stiffin ur chassis quite well man.. espically ful length.. and if you get the full length try to get the one with the x in between it.. that'll defitanly stiffen ur chassis....
