Krazik - you're going to hate this question but...


in your photos I see you've moved the mounting points of the pass side OEM 3-point so that you could remove the bulkhead.

this is unlike the Harddog where the guild brackets can be attached to the bar but the rollers are still mounted on the bulkhead.


does your layout work?
or is it an "ok for the passenger but not for me" type setup?

question on cage design...

I'm getting ready to build a roll bar. right now i have a soft top but will be getting a hardtop when i can find a deal on one. the ultimate goal is SCCA ITR, but that is prob in not in the cards until 2011-12.

Will a main hoop built to soft top specs fit under an HT? Will there be any significant gaps between top of hoop and roof? Maybe the guys with a hard dog bar + HT combo can chime in.

Yes, and yes. There is more room under the hardtop.

If you plan on permanently removing the softtop eventually, do it before you install a bar.

I think I saw your car there a couple weeks ago. Suzuka blue getting a full cage. Are you competing in a w2w series? Has it been weighed? Must be nice and light

I have an 06 and trying to decide if I do a weld in roll bar or not. Don't wanna make it irreversible, as I don't know if this will be my track car in a couple years.
