Keep in mind, bolt in cages don't pass tech at most events nowdays, at least not in WA.

bolt in cage passes drift day rules no problem. if you want to tandem it has to have door bars as well though. i dont know what you plan to do with your car but a custom cage is the best choice. you can even put in special joint that make the door bars removable. this way you dont have climb in on daily basis over them but still be legal for racing. a bolt-in cage in general is garbage though.

Also need a SA2000 helmet. if i dont see that in the cali drift days/pro am i would fail the driver..Anyways custom is the best way and safes way i think (if done to SCCA standards) plus if you decided to compete like SCCA, PRO AM, Formula D, etc they wont give you a hard time.
