anyone have any pics of cusco roll cage in integra wit sun roof? ls or gsr. i know it doesnt fit in those cars but want to know what kind of modification you have to do to make it fit. thanks.

 

bump.

 

thanks for the bump. i am sure many people want to know as well.

 

You have to cut about 1 - 1.5" off the legs, then reweld.

I have a Cusco 6 point and it presses very tightly against the headliner if you dont cut the legs off.

 

They actually have a cage designed for integras with sunroofs. You just have to specify when ordering the correct one for you car. Try Napsusa.com or Bulletproof Automotive.

 

if i was to get the 6 point roll cage, do i have to cut 1/5 on all the legs.

Assuming you have the 6 point for a car with no sunroof, you will have to do some cutting.

On my cage, I was going to cut .5" off the main hoop and the front bars then dry fit. I wouldnt mess with the rear legs until last. You might be able to get away without modifying them.

 

my car has the sun roof. the only thing i am worried about the the front because of the little loop by the dash to line up correct you know what i am saying. if anyone have done this on their integra i wold like to see some pics of it thanks.

But it is possible to install it in without cutting it?
Is it possible to get it to fit if you just take the headliner out?

Thats what i was thinking of doing. I just baught this cage myself but havent put my car back together enough to try to fit it. Thank you in advance

 

Just buy an autopower man, Cusco although a great showpiece arnt the uh...best on protection.

The headliner is only part of the problem. The sunroof motor and frame that hold the motor/glass in place takes up alot of space as well.

When I test fitted mine, I was able to get the main hoop in place. But I really forced it in there and f'd up my headliner as well. When I removed the headlinger, it still pressed up tightly against the sunroof motor/frame. This may cause the sunroof to not open or something weird. When I removed the sunroof assembly, the hoop fit in much better.

 

So you removed the sunroof assembly? Meaning the entire motor and frame for it?

As long as there is a way to get it in. My only worry was it not being able to fit at all. Im not worried about keeping the sunroof or the headliner. I guess ill find a way. Thanks

Yup, I took off the whole sunroof assembly. It's really easy too, just a few 10mm bolts that hold the frame up. Then the entire thing comes down.

Here's my car without the sunroof. You can kinda see how the roll cage fits snugly against the roof. I can take better pictures if you want.

 

Ha o damn. So you literally lost the entire sunroof, including the glass? Is there anyway to atleast keep the glass?

 

Is that a cusco cage? Why did you change the color?

No, because the frame/motor assembly is what holds the glass in place. Once you remove that, there's nothing to hold the glass.

That's why you are better off cutting the legs.

Cusco makes two cages: the blue one which is made of chrome moly steel. It is not intended for race use (in Japan). The black one (called Safety 21) is made of thicker steel and is designed for race use (in Japan).

O gotcha. So how tight was it before you took all that stuff out? I wouldn't mind it being tight. If i ever decided to take the cage out i would just buy a new headliner. I just don't want to drive around with no headline and a bag on my roof. Damn

Me neither

That's why I'm going with this:

 

Thats a good idea actually. Im just nervous to run that with the chrome moly steel cage.
But do you think there is just a way to snug the cage in without cutting it?
As long as i dont use the sunroof?

 

that integra is soo sick. i wanna see a pic of it with the sunroof and leg cut. if anyone has it please post it up for me. thanks.
