care to share the information you found, i'm leaning towards getting a cage soonish.

Why you planing on rolling your car??? LOL

Shane there is a place at Geebung makes roll cages and i think Autobarn at Virginia has an R33 half cage in stock....

half cages and full cages are legal, Rules state they must not encroach sp* on front occupant space any more then needed and must be bolt it. They also must not make it any harder to get in and out of the car hence why side intrusion bars are not legal on the street.

Cages not only offer protection but stiffen the car up shitloads, making them handle way better.

Some interesting comments in regard to the cages, i'm looking at getting a street legal half cage for a 33 sedan in the near future, can anyone give me some performance places they would recommend to build one in brissy, prefer northside, definatly not add racing as they are a pack of unqualifed dicks sorry mods if that goes against rules but want to warn fellow sau members

I know there is a place on the southside near mazfix (on the same street) that specialises in roll cages may want to take a trip and have a look. They always seem to have old school cortinas and the like, being fitted out.

guys pm me, myself and my housemate build them :D mine is andra approved and street legal, as previously mentioned, you can either bolt in and weld, also some andra tech guys go a little easier on street registered cars depends who u get and how they are feeling.

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
