Good stuff !
Which company did your cage ? 
And how do you find it driving with I guess half interior ?

My Z is basically just for track stuff now, so I'm thinking I may as well gut the rear and sort a cage at some point this year.

:thumbs:

 

Thanks, its been a journey for me with this build. :lol:. I actually like it semi gutted. Its clean and light now. Everything is easy access. Easy to clean up etc. Doing it though required a mammoth amount of work. I did alot my self to keep costs down. The cage was done by a company in Surrey. Nickson motorsports. Did a very good job, not cheap and there were a few delays. But I was not in a rush, I basically wanted a quality job. 

 

Downsides of having it gutted. Well more road and exhaust noise. Since its fully open and the chassis has alot of openings in it. The handling of the car changed for the better I must say.

That's all for now. Bit more bits and bobs to finish off this year hopefully before winter hits.

Summer is here, and time for some new mods. 

 

What better way than to start off with putting some carbon fiber on for weight reduction. 

 

VIS Tunnel hatch supplied by @Adrian@TORQEN and fitted by RT Performance.  Turned out amazing.  

 

Massive thank you to all those you helped me with this.
