Default post you fuel cell set ups

so i ditched my oem fuel tank... and i am interested in seeing some s13 fuel cell set ups. i haven't seen much online but i am planning on going with a 12 gallon and running 2 walbro external fuel pumps. but i want to see some cosmetic ideas, i am going to be putting the cell where the spare usually goes but I wanted to flatten out and resurface that area. any ideas?

Cut out all the sheet metal and weld in 1" tubing between the rear frame rails. I'll see if I can find pictures of what I'm talking about.

Just sit the fuel cell in the middle and weld the bars around it.

Here is the build thread.

how big of a cell are you going to run? if not that big, you could just bolt into the trunk area.

I want to do the same thing as that s14, but I want to put the cell under it. That way I can have a flat trunk and can keep 2 spare 17x9s in there.

I couldn't find any pictures that I liked enough to post, but I want to do the same thing,cut out the whole spare tire area,then weld in braces, and just mount it in the middle. That way the back part of the car is flat. I'm not really liking the sunk one to much though. But Jonas how is that car coming?
