I dont know where it says i ran 10.5 slicks, but i always used 26x10.5 Et streets on both 15 and 16" rims...I tried 28" x 10.5s on the 15x8 (5.5)bs draglited but they rubbed bad on squat, so i had to go back to 26s.

Back when i used that setup it was stock with a cut coil. Now i fabbed a straight axle setup, so i can use whatever size tire i want :P :D As ive stated in the past, 28" tires will rub with that wheel when the car squats. 26" tires are your best bet, and keep in mind that slicks and ET...

15x8 w/ 5.5" bs and a 26x10.5 ET street or hoosier QTP. up front 15x4" with a 3/8" spacer and a 26x7.5" MT sportsman front (if you expect it to have some street time), or a 25 or 26" Moroso frontrunner.

I see most are of the Bomex variety. Ill be sure to post pics of my Greddy whaletail once i get some paint slapped on it.

Pretty much exactly what you gotta do if you want to do a box. Looks well done and above all, is the safe way to do it. You could also weld the sparetirewell with flat steel and do straps out of 1x1 steel, almost like a fuel cell "cage" and tie it into the rear "framerails". There are a few ways...

Since the Supra is a "hatchback" with no rear firewall, the only way to legally do it (for racign anyways) is to mount it UNDER the floor, with an access door (kinda like this one...

What all is involved? is it 5sp now? or just replacing the current auto? I might be interested if i could make a few bucks off it :)

I have it on my computer, but it is broken, and have no real way to upload since im on 56k. Someone on this forum may have it though....More pics of the 87 in my thread in the build-up forum.

:wavey: Im gonna have to beg to differ on this one... it took a 640whp camaro(similar in weight to the mkiv) to barely beat my stock 750 (well, piped lowered and stretched at that time) from a roll. Unless its a 500whp miata, i dont see 500whp trapping 133....
