clutch - 7mge, and suspension

Clutch pedal freeplay is supposed to be checked every so many thousand miles, but most people NEVER touch it until it causes a problem.

To tell you the truth, MKIII Supras are known for their harsh engagement, it's becuase the clutch isn't a spring hub like on most cars (at least the turbos aren't). 60% pressure increase over stock might also equate to 60% more effort to push the clutch pedal down...definately a bad thing.

Smallest size that will fit is a 16" wheel, and some are better than others (clearance on the front calipers is really close). DO a good brake job on it, and it will stop pretty quick for such a heavy car. I agree on the balljoints, if it's not that it's the top shock mount.
