if the aircon was easy to remove i would have taken it out as i don't tend to use it much, also if the car was a 3-door the rears would be removed.
il just stick with my current engine plans at the moment

u have 2 decide what u want out your car!
full blow racer
street racer
fast road car
if u dont decide what look you want before u start u will end up with somthing thats not a race car but a rubbish road car at the same time!
i lost 250kg out of my cossy but then its a racer so the completle striped look is ok!
but if u want the road racer look then go down the gt3 route!
strip the back out cage the back (not a show cage) and then trim the back out in light weight flocking, replace the rear windows with plastic and add loads of painted carbon fiber panels (doors, bonnet , boot, roof)
this is the only way road cars can lose weight and not look stupid!
or just stick with your nice comfie road car and add more power (20v, g60 conversion, or an old golf gti 16v lump on throttle bodys!)

The back plastic panel on my rear door has been off since I got rid of the wiper. That along with the parcelshelf. Every always asks me "where is your parcelshelf?". I never knew it was much of a concern lol
