looking at getting an apex roll cage for my s14a which i plan to start racing at some point. now I've checked the blue book and all looks good, just wondering if cages for racing need to have a certificate (alla FIA cages) or do they get checked when the car does?

cheers for any help :thumbs:

bdc scrutineering isnt reaaly comparable to propper racing. they might well ask you to prove what it is made of but ive never seen a propper certificate for a roll cage.

well i'm going for the apex one, think as long as the welds look alright then it'll be fine, it's made out of the right spec material so the only thing, as mentioned, would be that i migth need to prove what the material is.

If it's to the designs in the blue book, it doesn't need a certificate.

If it doesn't conform to the standard designs, it does need a certificate.
