whats up with all these show cars??? and yes that is a fake cage for looks. anyone who knows anything would advice against it. not safe at all. Im not trying to just single out the OP but alot of guys here just build useless cars that look good. idk i just would rather make my car a track car instead of a show car.

The car looks great, but I agree that a roll cage for the street is not recommended. Even if you're involved in a low speed accident, there's now a huge piece of metal for you to bang your head against.

when ever someone on here shares their opinion they are called a hater... some of you need to grow up. ask any guy who actually tracks their car to look at that cage and see what they say..

Not all that big of a deal... I hate how there's always conflict on the forum.. But hell, that's what the internet's for...
There's always more than one opinion

the cusco cage is not legal in any type of racing (except for D1). its also 100% bolt on. a real cage should be welded properly in the car to meet FIA and other regulations.

All in all, I would say just stick to the subject, and all he asked was for your opinion on his wheels, nothing else... geez.

I love the fact that you have an awesome stance awesome rims and some meat on those rims. That is how it should be. Not the wek sos streatched 235 on a 10. Beautiful setup. That setup with that drop on a Nismo with gunmetal(match the lowers) would look beautiful.
Keep it up man.
Chris
and Jubes to some a bolted in cage is considered fake. Unless he welded the Cusco one together. Or this was a custom one built and painted cusco blue
None the less this car look AWESOME.

Jubes i dont think you get what i mean by fake. Im sure its a real cusco cage. About the guy that rolled, he probably would of got hurt even worse with that cage or any cage. you should read up on them and then you would understand that its not safe to have one in a street car specially that one. and you are right it is off topic so ill stop.

There was a recent posting (sorry for not remembering the username) but he was involved in a low speed accident (45mph) where his car flipped over and crushed his C-4 through C-7 vertebrates... don't you think this cage would've helped prevent that? I'm not saying that this would be a common occurence and that cages are a recommended thing, but when you get behind that wheel, anything is bound to happen.
All in all, I would say just stick to the subject, and all he asked was for your opinion on his wheels, nothing else... geez.

I believe I may have met the owner of this car before and he seems like a cool guy, but if you're his friend, you should really consider his safety or the safety of anyone else riding in his car.

Well the subject came up in this thread so I'm just commenting on it. As far as that accident, well if you wish to stay on the subject, I don't see why you bring this up. Could a cage have prevented his injuries, who knows. Without a six point harness and all the other safety equipment, probably not.

Sorry if i came off that way man I didnt mean to. Im a tech so I work on cars for a living and also do all the work on my car myself, so I definitely have respect for anyone who does their own work. He should keep up the good work but seriously think about the mods he chooses. as in thinking about safety and driveability of his car if it is a DD.
