crx roll cage w/ stock interior

Re: crx roll cage w/ stock interior (stemiched)

You can have a cage and all stock interior (cut, but all in there)...
I have posted an old picture of a cage (terrible picture).

My biggest consorn is where the location is for the rear mounts. Weak part of of the chassis to bolt/weld.....I'd like to see them in a different location, closer/on the strut towers.

I don't know who the hell you were talking to, because I've been driving my CSP/TTE full-interior '91 CRX with a 4-point custom welded-in SCCA/NASA-legal roll bar for years now.

Regarding that eBay car,

A) That is not a "roll cage." It's a roll bar with NHRA-style front supports (which I highly recommend against having unless you are required to run them by the NHRA).

B) That bar is a bit poor-fitting. The main hoop doesn't come close to the pillars at all.

C) I am not a fan of the design. There is no triangulation with the main hoop or rear supports - and no harness bar or diagonal either. The rear supports are also too close together, and their baseplates are on a weak part of the chassis.

That is one of the crappier harness installations that I've seen. That's an Autopower bar, so why didn't they get/use the optional harness bar?

Re: crx roll cage w/ stock interior (doublethink)

But i guess for looks to the untrained eye that is badass https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emthdown.gif traction control < style FTMFL https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emsad.gif

Re: (Hiii Im TYLER)

Its not NHRA legal, you can't grind the welds https://honda-tech.com/forums/images...s/emthdown.gif

You brought back a week old thread to say this?

Welds weren't grinded.... Just added a little filler over them.
