What Michael said.

There are some cool advantages to having a cage though,,,especially a full one.

1/ You will feel so much safer whilst thashing the crap out of her.

2/ You will now have proper anchoring points for a full harness and again you will feel safer whilst thrashing the f**king crap out of her.

3/ If you jack her up in the right spot you can change 3 wheels at once.

Cheers

Neil.

well it might be a bit late, but to answer your question, possibly yes.

In many sup regs cars which are not registered need a log book. And a log book needs a CAMS certified cage.

Instead of generic interweb advice, I'd check with the clubs you intend to run with.

I'm only new to the track scene and the only tracks days I'll be running in is anything I see on here and the sau championships.

I'm Not sure what clubs there are I could go through. So any info would be very helpful.

Can anyone expand on the Vic drifting requirement for a cage? Is that only for the guys in the actual competition, not the guys just out there having fun. Or do they not run them on the same day, and there are different events for amateurs that just want to have some track time

Ended up going a full cage 6 point with a few extras so I can enter wtac open class next year from mcqueen motorsport. Set me back around $2500 including mounting seats.

Bit late but you need CAMS specification half cage as a minimum for any Vicdrift event at all, you won't be allowed on the track without one, no matter what the event is or what class you are in.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

      The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.

      What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
