Do you have any parts of the cage that go forward past the firewall?

Will have bars that are braced to the firewall but for the classes im looking to build for bars piercing the firewall are not allowed. that and there really is no front strut towers in a miata that sit almost flush atop the frame rails.

[capitlj]

Those are a little bigger than stock eh?

[Slowica]

Needs more cage

I'll see what i can do, time is of the essence here and i haven't had much to dedicate to this. Rear diff, brake calipers and brackets are ordered, possibly be here this week then that should wrap up the drivetrain until the trans grenades.

It'll possibly see some street time thus i'll be keeping it as much street legal as possible.

Wow, is that whole cage made of 1-5/8"? If so, that car is safe enough for Spanky Spangler to take and go jump some bus's with.
