Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

I finally got arownd installing my roll cage/roll bar what ever you want to call it. I also got new seats and new harnesses. Now I have to upgrade the turbo and then I will be ready for next year. No more getting kicked off the track ;D 98ctr

PS: big thanks to my friend Wayde Segawa for helping me weld the cage in.

looks real good https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...es/thumbup.gif where abouts you get it from, and how much if you dont mind me asking

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Looks good man. When you go to the track and they run the tech inspection, do they check out the plates you used and the welds etc.? Just wondering because I did mine myself and wasn't sure if I needed a licensed welder to do it up for me. It came out fine though.
Also how much room is there between the main hoop and your roof? It was a tight fit for me, but I guess it's better than being too close to your head :-\

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Looking good man! What turbo are you planning on using next year?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

I got a gt35r that I need to install, and make a 3" downpipe instead of the 2.5" that I have now. 98ctr

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

looks real good in there!!

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

I hear ya, better safe than sorry and I beleive there is a limit as to how low the main hoop has to be. Here's a few shots of how close mine is as well. it was a tight squeeze.

No blinging seats and harness's here though. Maybe someday.

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

98ctr, did you have to fab it in any way or did it pretty much just fit right there? It's nice fo sho. :)

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

very very nice. i still have a cage for my crx i sold, i never did get thta thing in. heh.

is it tig welded to the plates/frame ? thats the only way roll cages are accepted in cars around here for the track, i was wondering if its the same everywhere else ?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

that's a nice cage. you definately have to take a video of your car ripping down the track ;D oh, and post the video here 8)

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

why do we get the leftovers man, this has beeen on honda-tech for days......

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Bet it has been on www.clubEK.net for a while too. Nice work 98CTR. Fitment looks great. How much weight do you think it adds?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

No fabbing at all. All I had to do is cut to fit and notch a couple of the pipes.

Sorry guys, I thought I put it on here too, but it was the post about the turbo's that I put on here. :-[

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

OMG that looks AWESOME Stefan!!!! Can't wait to paint my cage too! That little hatch has really transformed since the first time I met you when I bought your hood. I'm glad everything is going good with your car cuz good things should happen to great paople ;)

Good luck with everything and I hope I see it soon!!!

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

That official from Woodburn did get a little pissy with me cuz the back of my seat doesn't touch the back bar. I can make it touch but then I can't reach the peddles.

It was really tough deciding where to put it because both Jeff and I daily drive the car. He's like 6'1" and I'm barely 5'7" so it was a challenge...

Well Ihope I don't get into too much trouble next year... we'll see... You and me seem stir it up when were out there, well that is if you can even stay on the track!

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

my dads setup is going back together tomrrow :-)

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Damn, that's one sexy hatch. Makes me want one very bad. :-[

Nice, she ran an 11.99 before, correct?

We need pictures/video man ;)

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

So your seat actually has to be touching the back of the bar? ??? Whats the point in that?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Thanks Leia, hope you take good care of my hood, well your hood now ;D . I hope everything is going good for you guys. Happy Holydays. 98ctr

ha ha, and if you could keep your charge pipes from flying off. lol. It would be fun to do it next year. See ya and have a Merry Christmas. 98ctr

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

more like 11.6 I believe.

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

man it take two months to get a piston done?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

it took me 3 months to get my turbo on, so he works faster than me at least.



did the cage do much for stiffening the chassis?

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

did not had a chance to check that, its been raining so I did not want to try. 98ctr

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

the rain is more fun. I almost ran my truck into a curb last night when it was raining, but it was fun.

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
 

Seeing that car makes me think I should trade my CRX for the 96 she just bought. Two Thumbs Up!

Re:Roll cage/roll bar installed
