Hi guys new to this forum
As you can probably already guess i need help with info on getting a rollbar.
The reason im wanting a rollbar is, im soon going to start doing track/drift days and would mostly want it for rollover Protection/reassurance.
Has anyone out there made there own before? my dads a certified welder so easily capable of helping me out.
Any help appreciated

Pretty sure it was TTT Auto Engineering who did Furai's. They've been recommended to me from some of my friends in touring cars too so I assume they're quite good.

Hey that's awesome dude!
There is another member up your way called MrGrey!
I'm sure there are some motorsport shops up there, if you get a chance, go for a drive around and get names!

Cheers guys! I've been messaging Furai on oldschool forum about advice for my first drift day, il hit him up for place and price.
Really? Awesome! Haven't really seen any other modified mx5's up here! Everything seems to be pretty standard.
Kieran that' exactly what I had in mind! I tried to upload a image but couldnt due to being a new member :L

This is correct, Good guys but any engineering shop will do one for you just find one and get friendly with them.

TTT engineering did mine, totally recommend them!
I took pictures of different roll bars with me to show the them what I wanted, they made a cpl of suggestions and I'm damm happy with the final product.
Worth every penny - and I'm a cheap bastard!
I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested.
