L00ks g00t.

Not sure of who's it is...

The door bars could be a little bit higher/wider...

that cage looks pretty damn good. it appears to be nice and tight up agianst the "a" pillar which is a definate plus. the back of the cage looks really nice too. as someone already mentioned, the only flaw that i see is that the door bars are a little low on both sides and a little skimpy on the driver's side.

That cage looks familiar. I'm pretty sure I've seen that pic posted on Honda-Tech before.

100% sure...I think it belongs to someone here...

But yeah, that's a pretty nice setup. Except, like willard, I would opt for a higher side bar.

No support against the firewall though.. no petty bar.. the door bars are fine imo (albeit Id prefer nascar style drivers side door bar but still). My legs are under that height normally anyways I think. It still provides pretty good coverage for your body, not the best, but ok. The reat strut bar is technically two more points as well I believe, so you couldn't even add firewall support if you were stuck with a 8 point limitation. It seems they could have carried the a pillar bars up a little further as well, but like you said, they do appear to be tight against the body.

all that xbracing though for a drag bar? extra useless weight for a drag car isn't that?

The cage was done by cascade autosport out of North Bend, WA. The doorbars look a little low in my opinion. Also, it appears that where the bars attach to the front floorpan ... could have used some additional renforcement. I showed these photos to my cage builder (Mitch Piper) ... these were his thoughts also. Warren on this board has the same cage also.

Here are some pics of my cage:

Same cage that I have. $1800 for the cage. That's labor and materials. I've got pics in my sig, but if you're looking at Adam's, you're just looking at mine in a different color.
