i want to know whats the going rate for a 10 point certified cage with chute ???i ask because there is a local guy selling a 92 hatch with cage and chute for $2500 and im thinking about picking it up

 

thats the price off the cage and chute alone. I think NRG has a SFWD package for like 2700.

Either way a decent 10pnt cage will run no less of 1800.

if you can put another 1k in to the shell to make it mint jump on it. has the cage ever had its cert? as long as its a nice cage i say go for it.

 

I got a hook up and still paid 1200 without chute

 

At the end of the day it all comes down to the quality of work you want done in the car. Its just like anything else. A car with a good cage will hold a better value. Here are a few prices of going rates for chassis work....

10 pt cage....$2250
custom window net setup $250
kill switch setup installed $250
5 point harness installed $250
mounting of seats $150 each
parachute setup with chute $800, without chute $500

These are just a few prices of going rates on chassis work, you have to sit back and see if the car is worth the amount you are paying for it. Is the work up to par in the car your looking at is one thing you have to sit back and look at. Does the car need updates?

Its just like anything else, you have look at what you are really paying for and see if it is worth it.

 

2500-3000 is usually the going rate for them. That's what we normally charge for the "9sec" cage setup.

 

if you can buy a chassis that already has a certified cage in it with some of the other safety stuff you can definitely save some money over paying to have one built for your car by a reputable fabrication shop

but it is also nice to have a cage custom built in your chassis the way you want it too

 

Yes thanks for all the input ....and the cage is already ceridefied and the car has a fresh paint job ...it has the window net already setup i might jump on it

 

very well said ...im going to look at the car this weekend again and see whats up

 

i paid 2900 with window net, chute , and release cable, and i gave the chassis shop the car 110% gutted, if they have to remove interior it can add up quick

 

if the car is in good shape and all the stuff was done right i would get it,that what i ended up doing,worked out really well for me.no more getting kicked out hehe.
