Does anyone have any pics of roll cages in SC300s?

I don't want to get one, but if I can find a design that is not super intrusive, then I would consider it.... I heard Toyomotos car had a nice cage, that was not intrusive, and looked very nice..... Anyone know where I could find a pic of it?

Default question

It depends on what you want...if you want to comply with track regulations you may not have a choice...if its for looks then you can do without some of the braces.

Anyhow contact a race store near you since the job should be custom made...there are no roll cages available.

Here are some pics!

The site is Japanese. The car is the Japanese 2.5 twin turbo Soarer. The one they didn't export to the US!

Default ouch!!!!!

That guy likes to cut and destroy interiors right? Man talk about destroying that soarer...He put the gauges in the glove compartment!!!!! well I guess he can have access to used/new parts easier and he doesn't care about his car since there are so many in japan.

Mind:eek:

I guess it is a completely different car culture.

Most of the guys dont think twice about putting the guages straight into to the glove box! If I've seen it once I've seen it a dozen times.

But when you've got a 450bhp, 200mph, single turbo vvti 2.5, sometimes it doen't matter!!!!

I'll try and get some pics with this other Soarer scanned and posted real soon. It's truly awesome. The article is in HyperRev vol 35.
