Default Autopower Roll Cage Pics










sorry for the crappy pics... but had a few people PM me asking for them, so this will have to do for now

Great guys to work with and very supportive of the grassroots racers!

Drivers side seat has almost full motion with the stock seat. should be good up to around 6'4" people with the stock seat. with an aftermarket seat you can gain more than enough legroom for the tallest people.

Passenger side limits the legroom and backrest angle a bit more, since for SCCA you can't have two bends in the horizontal cross bar. My girlfriend is 5'11" and doesn't complain unless it's more than 3hrs. at a time.

Pricing varies by options, they're pretty much made to order, but are super quick on delivery.

$300 Street Roll Bar
$360 Race Roll Bar
$695 Race Cage

www.speedalliance.com is local to them and has good prices.

Wholy crap. You should rename your car to "The dust Bunny" That cage is looking nice.

Thanks for the info. If you could ever get some further away pictures of the rear x-brace and of the thing as a whole that would be great. I really want a rollbar (not cage), but I'm 6'3" and I hear the Kirk bar isn't for me.

Hah don't sweat it.

Poor wheels they look so messed up. At least one of us is using the car for what it was made for and not pussyfying it.

Yes, SCCA Approved! (it's actually overkill) 1-3/4" DOM .120 wall thickness) SCCA only require 1-5/16" .095 in DOM (drawn over mandrel) in this class car (over 3,000lbs.)

For the price, you can't go wrong... if you have a higher budget and don't mind the downtime for a custom cage, you can do better.

btw, I bought the wheels like that, came off a S14 drift car, that's why they're all messed up... I drive hard, but don't usually mess up my wheels that bad

Jason, you've seen my car dozens of times with the cage... I've had this for over 2-years! Don't you remember sitting in the car when you wanted to try the seat? How bout when the car sat there for 7-months? hahahah

anyway, I have to bring it by, still can't get it to start on its own... no one seems to know why, and I can't justify changing anymore parts till I know why it won't start. (did you know the ign switch is $320!!)
