On a separate but related note, does anyone have a source for Sparco QRT seats right now? They have all vanished![/QUOTE]

i went with the apmotorsport clubsport cage. it was only 2800 usd to my door(paint included). it goes in similarly to the fall-line. the fit and finish is amazing! no pics yet(they have some on their site), as i was waiting to get my interior back in. but I haven't managed to get the panels back in with the cage in the way lol

*edit* - this is actually the same bar as the RossSport bar. This rear shot is the same car as on the RossSport site. I was considering the RossSport bar but they didn't really show the rear shot like this. Not sure if I'm ok with that mount point.

I'm confident in it. however, that is me. if you arent comfortable with the mount points, there are a few other options to consider. |

Just a FYI all.
My cage arrived today from Australia. I ordered it on July 2nd. I'll post more when its installed next week with my QRT-C's and Flexi 2x2 Schroth belts...

If anyone is interested in the Ross Motorsport 4pt rollbar, I ordered one but cancelled because the quoted lead time was too long. Turns out it already has gone into fabrication. I ordered a CMS rollbar which is arriving today so this one is up for grabs. It was $2800 CAD for me after conversion so it'll be way cheaper in USD.
It's basically the same style as the AMI rollbar listed above. If you're looking for one this is a great option and given it went into fabrication already lead time should be minimal. I requested a dark grey powder coat (but at this stage you likely could change to whatever RAL color you want) https://www.rosssport.com/Brands/ROS...Rear-Roll-Cage If you're interested, I can give you Ross's email and my order number. You can take over the order.

I also like that there's no drilling or cutting for the install. I think they're back-ordered on the seat deletes, but I'm in no hurry. Will post pics when I get everything installed. |

I absolutely didn't want the X-brace in the back supports like the RSR roll bar, visibility would be horrible I think. CMS made a good point, the steel they use is a lot stronger than the steel the RSR bar is made from, compensating (at least in part) for the lack of the X-brace in the back. FWIW. |

I am very curious how it installs. You say no drilling so that is interesting to me but I'll know soon enough. I asked about getting it in hockenheim silver but he wasn't sure if they had that powder coat yet so I just went basic satin black. JJ

Well,
Life is full of ups and downs. I'm not going to be able to install the 4 Pt cage.... So I'm looking to sell it ASAP. Its still in its shipping materials and I will part with it for a discount of course. MY loss, someone else's gain! PM if you or anyone else you know is interested in it. I'm located North of Boston, MA. PS. I might be selling my Sparco QRT-C's as well along with the complete mounting slider kits I have. These seats are also still in their shipping materials... THX! HAZAMT

Car has been in a major accident.
I'm going to return the seats soon if no one bites on them.
