Today I dropped off my EK hatch at my sponsor shop, All Speed Innovations out of Cincinnati, OH. We began stripping down the interior to have a custom weld-in half cage installed. The completed cage will consist of a main hoop, down bars to the rear strut tower, x brace, harness bar, and a strut tower bar.

Here are some pictures from the work we got done today. More will follow as work is completed by ASI.

This is why slamming a street car is never a good idea… One of the previous owners must’ve hit something nasty that punctured through the floorboard. This will also be fixed.











That’s as far as we decided to go today. All that’s left before the cage is to remove the dash, and trim all unnecessary bracketing. ASI plans to start work on the cage next week, and should be completed by about the end of January.

Thanks!

I should hopefully have more updates on the cage progress next week. They are ordering the materials this week.

The car will be undergoing quite a few changes this offseason, new cage and k24 setup. Additional updates will be posted on my build journal here!

This is an autocross car, yes.
