weight reduction - simple and easy thing to do for beginners, preferably for 2 door vehicles in prep for any track running, suggested to remove the back seat cushion(the bottom just simply pops out, just need a bit of force, the top sections have torx bolts on each side), spare tire, and any garbage you may have collected inside the car

new seats - if you dont have the heated seats, new seats are a matter of remove, swap, install, four bolts, the seats are out, then move the rails over to the new seats, and re-install. they not only add a custom look to the car, but they also cut back on weight on the vehicle
Fixed that for ya
