ok so heres the story... before my parents let me do some modifications to my car they want me to get some kind of safty bar, in other words a roll bar. so does anyone know of a place that sells roll bars for the wrx that you can still use the back seats with? and i dont want a custom one where i have to bring my car there i want something that is pre-made and i can just bolt it in.. thanks for your help..

Unless you are going to track your car, you won't need roll bars.

 

okay, if they're serious about it here is your answer. its the STi 6-point roll cage designed for the WRX/STi sedan. i found this on http://www.fourstarmotorsports.com (they're in canada).

its not something you need for the street, but if you want to modify your car, and keep your folks happy.....

 

go and by a larger sway bars and tell you bought anti-roll bars (technical name). this way you don't need the roll cage.

 

yea thanks alot, there not that stupid my dads pretty into cars too so he will know what the sway bar is, but its pretty much all my mom so me and my dad could maybe talk her out of it. but also i kinda want some safty devices also. but who knows. can you still use the back seats with the STI roll cage?

 

maybe talk them into buying you some nice recaros and 5 points instead...hmmm...hmmmm.

Safety, style and comfort.....make the moms happy and yourself too.

 

oh yea one more thing if i do happen to get that STI roll cage will the Sparco harness bar fit too? or is there a way to attach harnesses to the STI roll cage? thanks a lot im still not even sure if im getting the roll cage, probally not

 

oh i think im going with the Cusco bolt-in roll cage, a local dealer has then for sale(MPJ Performance). but does anyone know if the sparco harness bar will work with that roll cage? or is there another mounting solution for the harnesses that you will still be able to use the rear seats? i meant if i get one im going with that one, lol still not sure if its needed.

 

yea i understand what you are saying. but if i did get the cage i would get harnesses too. but does anyone know if the sparco harness bar will fit with the cusco cage?

 

i'm sure that you can get a cusco bar and just hook up a bar across the back. just get it done at a muffler shop or somewhere that can weld.

 

I had the Speedware harness bar in my 03. Unless your under 5' 10" I do not reccomend it. I am 5' 9" and was comfy, my 6 foot plus buddys were definatly cramped. The car was hit by a big *** Buick and the harnesses held me in, that was the reason that saved my car (under post wrecked). If you go with harnesses go with the racing harnesses to wrap around the bar. I got the street ones that mounted to the floor so the bar was pointless for the harnesses. It did make the chassis stiff as hell. Keep your stock belts too. Got the bar from Vivid racing. Returning my car to stock, so I will be selling the harnesses and bar. Gotta wait to get the car back from the shop though (bout a month). Here is a pic.

tell you dad that a roll bar just makes it more dangerous unless its well covered or your wearing a helmet. You dont want your head and metal doesnt mix

 

A bolt in cage is a wast of cash. Any one worth having is going to need to be welded in. I have a Group N cage going in next week.
