Damn that is a really solid cage setup . I can't wait to see the finished product on this build.

So is this considered a VIP or EXE build?

Looks great! Very refreshing to see a break from the norm build. Very cool.

Pretty wild. Lots of gussets=sweeeeet. My friend gusseted the **** out of his cage. Should have thrown an X brace in the rear. Looks intense though, can't wait to see it done.

That's awesome! What's the weight difference between the tubbed shell and the shell with the cage?

i don't know it would have been a lot of work to get the car down to the scales without a motor. but it would have been nice to know.


thanks everyone for the kind replies!!!

the stock gs splines where cut off the gs rack and welded on the S13 column. I can also height adjust it a little. pretty pimp. I just need to take it out and give it a good healthy sanding and a good paint job.
