Depends on emissions but you could move your batter to the trunk ...there's a walk through for that ... A/C ... Power Steering...put in an electric fan etc..

well if your belt is already off you should be able to remove the compressor.. .check the FSM for proper procedures (it will eliminate some weight) the manual clutch fan puts a strain on the engines performance so electric is better

you don't really need power steering either, those cars are pretty light
