You're talking 1st gen coupe right?

- Bar under back seat
- Damper behind drivers airbag
- Weight in glovebox door
- Asphalt sound deadener under back seat (and under front floorboards I think)
- Take an air nibbler to the inner door skin
- Hood bracing
- Get a non-A/C small radiator

That's all I can think of offhand, maybe search the .org I know someone made some big list of stuff to remove and their weights.

Not sure how the 1st gens are but if you aren't concerned with a lot of saftey... how about steel bumpers under the bumper skins?
