I have a Cusco 6/7point Rollcage to trade.

I would have put it in my car but it wont fit because of the sunroof.

It will fit in any 2door r33 without a sunroof, GTR GTST etc ..

It is a bolt in cage so no welding is required, all bolts etc included

Im looking to swap it for a nice set of rims for my R33 GTST or a Bride passenger side seat with rails that will match the Bride fiberglass race shell seat that i have in the drivers side.

So if you have one of these that you would like to trade for one of the things i have let me know..

Ive attached a picture of the rollcage and a picture of my Bride seat

hey mate, firstly could you post a price or let me know what price your chasing. Second why doesnt it fit in a 33 with a sun roof. I have the same thing and was just wondering is it because it goes across the sun roof or is it because the hood lining is lower etc? I want to put a cage in and I love the look of yours but i am just trying to find out why you didnt put yours in, would it be possible if you didnt care about it covering the sunroof etc or did it just not fit period?

Cheers mate, matt

The reason is because the roof liner is too low, trust me ive ripped the whole liner out and the sunroof trying to fit it ..i even thought about getting it modified but just about every peice would have to be changed and u may as well get a whole new one made up .. the only way i could put it in is if i took the sunroof out and got the roof welded up and got a new roof liner from a non sunroof car ..

I havent posted a price because i want to swap it for some rims or a seat. But if someone put $900 in front of me they could take it home. But i would prefer to swap it ..

Mick

that cage is the hoop section behind the seats, the two sections that run down the 'A' pillars and the bars that link these sections along the top and bottom of the doors - yes? that means it has four body mounting points.

Mine had sections that extended into the rear of the car (no rear seat) and mounted at another two points. it seems in the pic that you don't have enough sections of bar to make up a full cage...

there is the hoop section, thats 2 points, then there are the two s shaped peices that run down the a pillars, thats another 2 points, then there are the two peices that have an angled plate on the end of them, they go from the top of the hoop section to the rear of the car thats the last 2 points, so thats 6 points that mount to the car, and there are two peices left, one goes between the two s shaped peices and the other one goes on an angle between the rear two peices ..

mine had additional bars that ran from the bottom of the hoop section along the bottom of the doors to the bottom of the S sections, + bars that ran from the back at the bottom of the hoop section to the mounts on top of the rear wheel arches+ a bar that ran between the rear mounts (where the back seat normally sat).

as far as i know the back seat is still usable and the cage doesnt interfere with anyone ..

the bars that go in to the rear of the car squeeze in on each side of the back seat.

You are welcome to come down and we can assemble it in the car to check, we can assemble it without actualy bolting it to the car, so it wont hurt to do it ..

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
