Is it going to make a difference to have subframes if i have a rollbar? or would it be good to have both?

Well a rollbar isn't exactly user friendly, and certainly not neccessary unless you're pushing some insane numbers. I don't see how having subframes with a rollbar could hurt, every little bit helps right?

My friend has a SICK 92 notchback and he has the cage in there that goes through the floor also, welded directly on his subframes.

If you tied the rollbar into the subframes I think it would make it a little more stiffer.. I was thinking about a rollbar with my vert.. just for added safety when autocrossing

i am looking at some chassis and suspenion upgrades right now, and subframes was one of them, but when i was done with that i was going to put a rollbar in, so i wasnt sure if it would be worth getting or not

Click to expand...

you running a 6 point? if you runa 4 point run full length sub frames...

the 6 a good shop will tie them together


and make sure the shop puts it on a frame straightener when they do the cage
