If you are planning on building a rollcage for racing.. make sure you check with the sanctioning body for their rules.

 

its not a coupe but here you go.

Here you go. its a autopower 4 point in my 97 coupe,

 

keeping the interior was a HUGE pain in the *** by the way.

 

that is a rollbar

he is asking for a rollcage



and why do you need pics? is this a racecar? is it a street car?

+1. A rollcage implies that you'll be racing "for real" and that you'll be running under official SCCA rules (or the like.) The rules dictate what your cage will look like... it's not like putting LEDs on your tire filler caps...

 

im guessin its for a street car that mite see some auto x.

You don't carry passengers in the back seat anymore, right?

Why rollbar, but keep all the interior? Stock seats even? Do you have harnesses?

 

he just wanted a clean look. thats why he kept the rear interior. no one ever rides in the back (before or after the rollbar.)
seats and belts are next.

yea its a streat car that will see alot of auto x and open track events so i just wanted to see what some other people had befor i make mine.

Real roll cages and street cars don't really mix! Roll bars, yes. Full roll cages, no!

 

you dont need a roll cage, a 4pt bar is good enough for auto-x/hpde. there is no serious risk of injury to need an 8pt cage in a street car.
