biggels240z Posted August 19, 2010 Posted August 19, 2010 Hey guys im in the market for a 1/2 cage for my 240z if anyone knows of one please let me know cheers Richard Quote
Moderators Zedman240® Posted August 19, 2010 Moderators Posted August 19, 2010 Might be a good idea to get a new one fitted; as one from another car may not fit quite right. Brown Davis ½cage costs around $1200? Quote
Bruce Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I have a brown davis cage in mine. From memory, It was about $850 a couple of years ago. Powdercoated, fittings for your harnesses and fitted. Quote
biggels240z Posted August 20, 2010 Author Posted August 20, 2010 thanks for the heads up ill look him up if i cant find anything else cheers Richard Quote
C.A.R. Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Just watch BD hasn't dented the back of your roof after fitment... :-\ Quote
Zeddophile Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Just watch BD hasn't dented the back of your roof after fitment... :-\ Heh - yeah, I'd tend to agree with that. Apart from the very poor design that some of their cages have, the fitting could best be described as 'rough'. A 4 inch slot cut in the dash to fit a 40mm bar is not really necessary... Unfortunately, Mark at Eastern Race Fab has now moved on to other things, which is a great pity. Did very nice cages for a very reasonable price - nice solid 6 point cage was about $3000. He may start doing them again at some stage in the future, but not at the moment. Fabraications in Braeside I've heard decent noises about, but haven't checked out one of his cages in person, and I'm fairly sure he's quite a bit more expensive. Meridian Motorsport I believe also do acceptable work, but at perhaps an unacceptable price. Maybe I should invest in a bender, steal some of Marks' knowledge, and put my TIG to yet more use.... Just because I'm not busy enough trying to keep up with my own to-do lists Completely off topic for a moment, Lurch you Smeeeee....... heeeeeee...... How long has Kryten been your avatar? LMAO. Quote
Riceburner Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 I'd highly recommend Brown Davis for the cage I got from them 7mnths ago, It's a 6 point with side intrusions, powder coated, on a car with full interior for $2100. Pleasure to deal with Quote
Bruce Posted August 20, 2010 Posted August 20, 2010 Fabraications in Braeside I've heard decent noises about, They put a 6 point cage in a 1200 coupe a had a few years ago. Really good guy to deal with. He loves his datsuns and had some really interesting projects in his workshop whilst mine was in there. Quote
