Pig Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 This one allows full useage of std seats. BUT when recaro speeds where in it could only go back about 3/4 of its travel. Please consider this restriction when fabbing. The one major difference i felt was the stiffness..ooh er missus! That one looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supradoopa Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I will have one mate and would be up for bringing my car to you for fitting to get the most room possible for the driver seat to go back, the one i sold to Wayne let my seat go fully back so may be worth having a look in his car;) I'd also like my seat to be able to go back as far as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike B Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 my cage comes through into the passenger compartment and along the a pillar into the footwell. IMHO this is the only point in having one as it's always the a pillar that crushes on these things... and the back of the car is strong enough. look at all the pics of mashed or rolled sups.. the a pillar crumbles so easily... It needs to be welded in too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnd-mkiv Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 This one allows full useage of std seats. BUT when recaro speeds where in it could only go back about 3/4 of its travel. Please consider this restriction when fabbing. The one major difference i felt was the stiffness..ooh er missus! This is what I was looking to achieve, I have been looking into this today to get the most from the reclined seat the upper seat belt point will have to be moved out im thinking of bolting the main hoop to this seat belt point using the seat belt bolt and a nice bracket, killing two birds with one stone Im going to have problems with my seats and a cage fitted as it has wide shoulder bulges, if you look between the gap of the door post and the edge of the seat that will give you an idea how wide a tube you can use. Hope that made sence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruggs Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 what about for us aerotop people? I tried the cusco cage but it doesnt fit in due to the lower roof. Any chance of making changes to the main hoop to accomodate? Thanks G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 fancy making two matey :) Nooooo... John's offering fancy painted and chrome ones. It would also be a LOT of work for me (and I'm not the best welder going, so I'll be getting my mate to do the major welding, I'll just do the pipe bending and tacking) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 how much was that rob? and from where? Got mine 2nd hand, they are pretty rare. IIRC, they are around £650 new. http://www.do-luck.co.uk/do-luck_rts.htm Its not a cage in the conventional sense, more along the lines of chassis stiffening than crash protection.
