Hey All,

I am wondering if anyone in the LA area has gotten a custom roll bar fitted into their Z. After reading some posts, it looks like the way to go is custom, so that's what I plan on doing.

I also want to ensure that it is SCCA approved.

Thanks.

Rahul

 

GearHeinz in Duarte, CA can fabricate you one to SCCA specs.

 

L-Con in Garden Grove

 

how much do full cages run these days

 

2k+ i would think. I paid about a grand for my 4 point roll bar.

 

over 2k

damn das like a whole year worth of tires for the track

 

auto power makes a 4 and 6 point bar specific to our chassis, its scca and nasa approved, i have the 6 point. its was 895 gotta pick it up in san diego to save on shipping though. if you want custom ^gearheinz^ does good work but anything custom is pricey.

 

Safety equipment is the most important thing not to lowball on, just saying. Even my fixed seat rails were custom fabbed.

 

word

if you're gonna get a roll cage do it right

dikspiel wanna donate a custom roll cage for me

 

Get a 4 point roll bar and then invest in the rest of the monkeys bars later on.

 

I had John at JSP make mine. Pretty good price and excellent work. Passes tech for NASA TTA and scca tt. It is a full cage that ran me about $2500.

 

I could vouch.

 

Why not just order a 4 point roll bar from autopower or Kirk racing?

 

Well i do just want a 4-pnt roll bar, but I heard that Autopower and Kirk both have some clearance between the bar and the ceiling just because you need to fit it in there. I am kinda tall and dont have much clearance from my helmet to the ceiling, so i want to make sure that the bar will be above my helmet or else it is pretty much useless.

i was looking for a 4-pnt for at or under a grand fabbed and installed.

 

I believe the kirk cage (not sure if the autopower as well) also makes you lose a bit more then necessary space behind the passenger seat. Not a big deal though.

 

May 6, you can check out my Kirk 4 point at the Fontana Nissan meet. I'm 6'1 and have no problems.

 

How about the Cusco bolt in cages? suprised no one brought those up as an option?

 

i am also planing to go there may 6 and i have the auto power 4 point

 

I was just thinking about going to this meet. Thanks for giving me another reason to do so.

As far as the Cusco cages, from what I have seen/heard, the bars are too thin to pass SCCA/NASA specs. They are more street/show from what I have read.

Kirk and AutoPower are the only bolt in options that I am aware of and wouldn't mind going this route if I know i fit, and the passenger seat issue isn't too bad.

 

I'd only recommend a cusco blue bolt in cage to someone I disliked.
