What advantage does moving the rack forward have? Better angle? Lighter steering?

anyways I picked up a 4port 13b bridge with a w5x box for $1300
,had it running in a Capella and got it out and home still warm
was apparently rebuilt 5000kms ago.who knows ,sounds good though
ive been spending most my time cleaning the bay and replacing the firewall piece that was cut out for the blacktop dizzy
the tunnel had to be cut and raised at the front to accommodate the W gearbox
all holes in the bay welded up and it's allmost ready for paint (silver glitter) because jdm fag

Basically my goal is to have it finished for QLD Matsuri
need to still powdercoat everything,mount and plumb the ASD hydro,make tailshaft,wire the engine in,new fuel lines and pump
,mount radiator and oil cooler,half cage ,intake (undecided on just a weber 51 ida or injection)
make exhaust,etc
going back to 185/55 on the front,re001 185/60 is just to big ...
also finally found and purchased quad light headlight covers
Here's a better photo showing the mounts.
the engine front plate is 6mm mild,uses standard 4age rubbers and 6mm mounts welded on the caster brackets
no mounts of the original x-member
the gearbox mount is 3mm 25x50 RHS with a 6mm plate that bolts to the original W mount
