How much difference does a cage make?

[Beastmode panda]

Hi guys, just wondering how much difference a 4 point cage will make to my ep91?

Cheers.

stiffens the car up alot and removes chasis flex. Well worth doing imo. a 4point will be noticeable as the rear will be tighter if that makes sense? So you will notice it in corners alot.

^^^ a full cage can also kill you if not wearing a helmet dependant on height and driving position, you smash your skull against 50x 3mm steel your quite likely not to live to tell the tale goes for your passengers too thats why lots of insurance companies will not even insure a car with a cage. on the other hand seeing the state of some of these that have been in a nasty bump ill be taking my changes with a full weld in in my gt lol cage ftw!!! lol

It didn't put mine up when I declared it on the sr.

Ok i didn't ask about insurance did i lol.

So back on track, and to my question that only shorty replied to.

Well of course it's going to make a difference, it will tighten up the chassis and reduce body roll. Shorty more or less got it in one

[james@cjperformance]

^^^ depends on where the feet mount too aswell as to the level of change you will notice, some 4 points mount to the strut towers in the rear and others mount just inside the boot

I know you didnt ask about insurance but obviously people are just trying to make you aware before you go spending you cash on a cage that it may be an issue.

My insurance went up 60quid with a full 9point bolt in, agrgued the toss and got it reduced to a 30increase, everything costs more if its a mod. anyone who does a mod before checking the inflation of the premium is a wally tbh.

My old v cage was 4 point and when to the boot floor rear corners i found this tightend the whole rear! And was instantly noticable. just buy one dude they are great upgrades and if your gonna track it wich i feel you might given the directions you have started to take then you will defo want a cage!!
