If you could buy bolt in side intrusion bars for your Brown Davis, would you? They will make them is we come up with 10 orders.

Cal.

hey cal, do you have any more details for my amatuer self??

Nope, one of the racing guys up here has inquired and they said they would make them if enough people were interested. That's all I know at the moment. So I take it you have an interest enough for me to find out a price?

Cal.

well im not completely sure how it would work...
...i may be interested...

arent there side intrusion bars located inside the doors?

arent any others illegal for street cars?

where would these go across and how and where could they bolt on to the browns davis?

and would this add on affect the CAMS approval?

No idea how they would work, but the idea will be there are for road cars. Yes the doors have side intrusion bars, but i would not want to get t-boned and be relying on them alone. I'd assume they would also be CAMS approved. You have have side intrusion bars in a road car, so long as they are bolt it. So technically they should be removed while driving in the street. I leave mine in though.

i'm mildly interested depending on the design and cost.

In my black car, I had bolt in intrusion bars fitted that were made by my roll cage guy. They are well worth the investment for chassis stiffness and added safety. I'd definitely recommend them.

Count me as \"interested\".

I'd like to see how they would fit before I committed though....

Is there a prototype yet? Build that, take some photos...

I'd need to see some before i'd fork out my cash.

Yeah, depending on price and how much cutting is needed to be done to the chassie to get them in.

I'm interested but as stated what would they look like and how would they bolt in at the front? I don't really want any holes in the side of my dash or plastic trim

They would have to bolt through the floor.

Cal.

i gather it'd look something similar to what astroboy has?

That is a Mazdaspeed rollbar. The big difference is the legs on those extend to the floor behind the seats, so it is much easier to get side intrusion bars to match up.

Cal.

Im keen.
keep us in the loop.
