Ok, I am after a half cage just for the rear of the car (2door integra) that will provide protection if I roll it but also, improve the handling. I am wondering what the best design would be for me, I really want to make the car stiff as possible, to improve handling. Thanks for any help

Search would likely not have helped, scrolling down might have.

Cool... it will be custom shipping would be absolute death, I am in New Zealand What I need to know is where would be the best places to mount it for rigidity and protection!
I have to disagree that a 4-point bar will significantly improve stiffness. Torsionally (in twisting) the bar mounted at its ends has a cross section of Pi times the diameter of the tube - and long arms to the mounts. I am having a VERY hard time imagining a way it could be loaded that any of its elements are in tension or compression without a diagonal (big assumption there, on my part, from the word "street"). With a diagonal, it is better but I still challenge anyone to prove that performance is enhanced. The additional mass might well offset ANY gains - if they exist.
