I've never been able to find them, and I know a few others here have had the same problem. But here at the Cusco cages for our cars (including the S14).

How do these compare to Autopower cages? I was debating on getting one custom from a race shop nearby who specializes in competition legal cages (I'm planning on track duty soon). Your thoughts?

What are those roll cages legal for? (SCCA?) Are they bolt in, or do you have to weld it in? Do they come in seperate bars, or are they full bent pieces?

Thanks to anyone who knows!

So to get something approved by a sanctioning body it would probably have to be custom made? Where's a good place to get something like that done? I think there is a place around here that builds stock car chassis, maybe they could help me out.

This is a couple years down the road anyways.

these guys can get Cusco cages for you http://www.bulletproofautomotive.com

they import directly from Japan, so it takes a while to get here (6-10 weeks), but customer service is good and they claim to beat anyone's advertised price
