Default EF9 Roll Cage

Does anyone make a roll cage for 90 Civic Hatch? More race-oriented but one that doesnt make it a pain to get into/out of the car...

go to dynospot.com ask for Lawrence. They can custom make a roll cage for your car (cromolly)...4 pt is 18 lbs...($600), 6 pt is $1000. Its a bit steep but its the best one I found...light and strong.

a 4 point would be a roll bar, not a cage. and a rollbar is more than 18lbs.
what are your entensions for the car? wheel to wheel on track racing? thats the only place you would need a cahe and then u willl need "pain in the *** doorbars". im not famillier with drag, so i dont kow what u need there. but a cage is a bad idea to drive around with on the street unless u plan on wearing ur harness and helmet all the time. even if u pad it, if u hit ur head on it when some socker mom on the cellfone hits u, it will hurt.

i was riding in my buddies crx out to the track the other weekend and it was a pain in the *** for me to get into because of the door bars, and plus everytime i got in i always hit my head on the bars (they were padded thank god), but i still want one. plus given the fact that i am 6'2" and getting into a crx is a pain to start with!!

how'd u hit ur head on the door bar???? the door bar goes from the front leg of the cage back to the b piller bar. ur probably talking about the roof hoop. most of the '04 cage rules require door bars(keep cars and solid objects from injuring the driver)
