looks good, I like it very much. what will be the use of the car? daily driver, track, something more special than that?

Answers to some questions:

hackish: This is a 1 5/8" x .134" mild steel 10pt roll cage. I was originally thinking of bending the pipe myself but it's cheaper just to buy a premade kit (at least in my area). So I bought this kit from swracecars.com. Very good site!! The cage is bent to my cars specs, they gave me all the help I needed (AND A DISCOUNT FOR NO REASON!), and the company is located in Spring City, PA. I live in Pittsburgh, PA so the shipping was sweet and an obvious choice!

Travis: I murdered your mom last night.

kyle: The car will be a daily driver during the spring and summer months this year pushing around 10-11psi. Next year though, the car will be track only (with the occasional street run :)) and will have major internal work done to the engine. I'm trying to keep the sleeper look for the most part but it's kind of hard when I pull up to someone and they see a roll cage, hear the bov, and see about 10 gauges and electronics in the car ;D hehe.

Tried it :(. Cops don't like it too much in my area. 4 verbal warnings and 2 written warnings got me to take it off (my tint that is... you people are sick!! SICK!!).

Yeah, The cops don't like it when they can't see who they're racing. hehe

Scratch that idea then.

Looks like a nice little project you have there. Did the cage fit like they said it would?
