Its excellent for driving-racing....

I wont install a support bar for the belts..I have them mounted under the bride...I didnt want to lose space from the rear passengers cause the 2 extra seats of the rx8 is the main reason i kept this car and i am still keeping it...1 driver and 3 babe's seats!!! LOL

Oh ok. I see. Thanks man! Im not too worried about back passengers.. Being 6'5 no one will be sitting behind me..

Well i am waiting next weeks to arrive the mazsport turbo kit type 3,also okada coils,ceramic coating,hks ignition amplifier..I will make a rebuild before installation and install fd rotors with racing seals(side-apex)-if everything goes well,port the engine and dyno tune it...So believe me the 400whp mark in 16psi is very few....

hey i see that you have 305's in the rear, but i have a stock 8 and i was wandering whats the biggest you can go in the rear, right now i have 245's all the away aroung. I know i prolly cant go bigger in the front without scrubbing, but let me know!

305 on a 9cm wider fender friend..Not stock fender..Probably the wider you can go on a stock fender and with a wide rim is 275 without rubbing...You can also go 285 but you ll have some problems...Thats for rear off course

For front the 255 for me is way too much...I have 235 which i believe is very close to the stock dimension when you go on 19 rims...

I've sat in many a Bride, Recaro, Corbeau, whatever, if you get hit from behind by a car traveling about 20 mph like I did only w/o seatbelts, good luck with all that

Why build such an expensive car, and cheese it on the safety aspects?

on another note,there's even guys running 9.5 with 275's on all corners, so you can fit them in the front/rear no problem. The only thing that limits your tire choice is wheel/offset for the most part, these cars have a lot of room even w/o a widebody.
