Try Bond Roll Bars in Sydney. Not sure of the phone number.
They do really good work.

Depends if it meets Aus standards. A half cage is easier to do and engineer.

Why do you need a cage storm, you running faster than 11.99 on the track. A half cage is needed for anything faster than 11.99, and a full cage for 10.99 or faster. The problem lies in that NSW will not accept a 6 point cage in NSW fue to the side intrusion bars, and ANDRA will not accept bolt in/out Side intrusion bars. So good luck

A mate of mine has a Datsun 1600 with a 6 point cage in it and another mate has a Mazda RX3 with a 6 point cage and they are both registered, engineered and legal. I looked at getting a 6 point in my RX4 coupe when i had it and found a few engineers would pass the 6 point but not a 4 point. Can't remember why.

thats it due heres where ya gonna hit a wall and have difficulties...ya gonna have to do the rounds n ring a few engineers and someone in the know with the various legislations for the states/terriorties ya gonna want this car legal in......this is one of theose huge mode everyone cringes at when ya still plan to keep it a street car...if its pure track/strip no one bats an eye lid so much but for street its gonna cost u quite a bit and gonn be some serious headaches involved.
