Guest Enzo Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 saftey devices also do a cage but its something i have not realy looked into, from memory it was between the 4-600 mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scutch0 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 i keep thinkin it'd be a nice mod to have... but then i think of the extra weight!! *shiver* Rich. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SiCaln Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 but u do lose weight in your pocket when u tell the insurers they sting u something rotten I've heard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlackTarw Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 yeah interesting point, when I declared the mods on my mini, they weren't concerned that I had doubled the horse power, only if I had a roll cage...crazy! £600 without a cage...£2500 with a cage...check with your insurers first before you get one.

Nanglebadger Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Yeah, even tho its a safety feature they figure that because u'v fitted one u must be expecting to roll the car. They dont take into considertion that it could come in handy if your t-boned or rear ended or somethin and prevent serious injury. They figure that if it was really necessary the factory would fit one, therefore u must be doing silly things in order to warrant fitting it...nerks!!!! I considered a custom one too because my dad wanted me to fit on...not sure tho, expensive.Phil. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
potge Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 A good technician can make a good rollcage, however there are ready solutions as cusco mentioned and others:For cusco http://www.cusco.co.jp/english/e_rollbar.htmland for another company with more products (Carbing)http://www.okuyama-go.to/products/dash/toyota_04.shtmlit has many pages as there are many products steel and aluminum Quote Link to post Share on other sites
minuszero Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 why dont you go and ask your local garge if they could just custom one for you prob get it cheaper than 600 that way!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lobotomy Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 why dont you go and ask your local garge if they could just custom one for you prob get it cheaper than 600 that way!!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yeah a fake one. May as well make one out out toilet roll tubes covered in tinfoil for all that'll help in a crash. There's a reason they're expensive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
