After a week of hard work I got my rollcage in and I am very pleased with the improved stiffness! Still looking for decent material to protect my head from banging into the cage.. anyone got suggestions?





More pics on my site..

 

nice install. what kinda of cage is it? for your head, most people feel alittle better with some padding around the bars.

is that a bolt in?

 

Looks good, I know a guy who put one in his civic coupe and he said it was a major pain in the ***

 

It is a bolt-in cage.. for the simple reason I want to be able to remove it if neccesary (for work behind the dash ) .. Before someone starts flaming me for mounting a bolt-in cage I've used grade 8.8 bolts and the cage is made from very strong tubular steel and is FIA approved. The cage comes from a racer but the driver bought an EG civic so the cage became obsolete..

I love it.. currently looking for some Sparco seats and 4-point harness..

 

lol bolt in. bolts into floor or is cage actually bolted together. how you suposed to get it out? =P

Jay and silent bob for president!

 

for the love of god, if you like your life, PAD THE BARS... USE SFI approved padding as well!

 

SUmmit Racing carries Roll bar padding in all colors, black white, yellow, red, purple, blue, green whatever.

 

Yes I will order them it's not like we have a specialized shop around the corner!

 

hehe if its one solid cage how you suposed to remove =P

 

how much was the cage?

 

whew... ok, just making sure...

just remember you need SFI... that other crap won't protect you...

 

Yeah it is solid, that's for sure.. a solid bolted cage..

Why thank you, I may be stupid, I ain't dumb

I don't see a good place to mount a harness

 

Í'm using the two original harness mounts and will drill two holes and use studs and nuts to attach the two additional mounts. Probably beneath the rearseat.

I don't want to mount the harness to the bar behind the seats.

 

Hey,

If you want some padding you can buy like 200 of those seat belt pads. And if anyone calls you rice you can kick him in the nuts and when he is flat on his ***, you can ask him, where is his padding?
