Looks the goods, only how the hell do you get into it? LOL, i would struggle to get in and out of that jungle gym :down:

practice. i think the best way is to sit on the intrusion bar with your feet in the car, then slide in. I will be putting a removable wheel in though.

the cage work looks great, i like the boxed front legs as well. I remember reading something about the intrusion bars had to be minimum 100mm up from the base plates on the front legs and hoop, is this true? or is it from the floor? or did i read wrong?

They must meet no further than 100mm away from the base of the leg/hoop.

And all intersecting bars must meet within 100mm of each other.

YT's old R34 we ran in 07/08 was like that cage, bloody hard work getting in/out! lol

Nothin better than pinching a nerve in your neck when getting in 3 minutes prior to a stage! lol, good strong cages but :D

Did that have the horizontal bar? I just cant seem to recall it cos there was so much room to swing your helmet back there?

Timmy, no, it didn't have a full diagonal, but rather two smaller diagonals behind each seat. They were welded about 50cm from the top and upper sides in the centre hoop.

I found a pic that kinda shows the bars....... and our intensity! lol. Just zoom in on it a bit.;

Deano, we run a PFC in ours, scrounged 2nd hand, but would love a Motec!

I'm trying to find a PFC Pro to run in mine, will be a modified GTR one though.

YT said my cage is very similar to his R34's. Cams have now banned those small braces on the main hoop...they will let you run a empty main hoop though

Interested in what computers people going to be running with their RB20? I'm looking into running the stock one with nistune on it for my motor.

Most rb20 guys if they know it can be done will put in a RB26dett power FC. you cant go past one for ease and cost. untill you get into the top end nothing comes close.

they display knock - not many others will.

the hand controller is fing porn and handy.

if you run the rb26 one over the AP engineering item you can run the air intake temp sensor that will detune the car as it heats up allowing to tune the car more aggressively to temperature.

i could go on but im out of time.

oh and Not on the cage. i think ben got it made with a small opening so i cant fit in it as im getting fatter and fatter. lol
