I was able to get my car (not including me) down to around 2600lbs while leaving the interior completely stock. My lightweight mods include:

Removing trunk junk - about 40lbs.
Lighter wheels (Enkei RPF-1) - about 16lbs
Essex Sprint BBK - about 20lbs.
Driveshaft Shop Carbon Fiber DS - around 13lbs.
ACT Pro-lite Clutch and flywheel - around 12 lbs.
Shorai 5lbs. battery - around 20lbs.

So that's about 120lbs right there from the car and you can get another 20 pretty easily by moving to a lighter cat back from the stock one.

When you want to remove even more than that, take a look at @Anthony build thread:

Did you actually weigh your car? I'm not saying it is impossible, but I have a very hard time believing the car dropped to 2600 lbs without gutting the car.
