Getting down that low will be VERY tough in a coupe IMO. I know a guy that has a k20 ej1 himself and he gutted it and even cut some trunk braces and such and was able to get it down to 2050 lbs. He has since decided he wanted some passengers so he put the interior back in it.

I have read that people have gotten them in the 1800-1900 lb range though.
