Piggy, see my long response above re 'handling characteristics'
A full wishbone conversion hasn't been done on a 306, as there really is no need, and as for damping adjustment, if you struggle to quickly adjust rear dampers on a stock rear set up with adjustable dampers, you shouldn't be working on cars! And as for spring rates, it would be easier but I fail to see the necessity really unless you're going for an all out race spec. But even then I don't think you'd benefit from adjusting spring rates much once you've fohd one that works well with he rest of the cars setup...
As regards weight saving, the car has been designed to give a fairly good weight distribution. Ripping out a load of weight from the rear axle, combined with the inevitable stripping a Racecar will undergo will significantly affect how it handles, as it'll become very nose heavy, with the rear end all over the place...
