ComicArtist Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Anyone tried to fit an s13 roll cage in an s130? I'm about to acquire a zx and looking at s&w 6-point weld in roll bars for s13's, and if no one's tried it I'll go ahead and give it a shot. Input?

Forcer Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Autopower makes S130 specific products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Well the coupe is like a foot shorter. My 2+2 had almost the exact wheel base as my friends s13 hatchback. Hatch angle was steeper on the zx 2+2. Do it and post results. For what it's worth I would still rather have my cage custom bent. Its cramped as is in my coupe and I dont want to be hitting my head on the roll bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicArtist Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Hm I might go ahead and order the S&W roll bar then. The main thing I'm worried about is the main hoop fitting correctly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluDestiny Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Also double check on the width's of the two cars. I never got around to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicArtist Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Yeah the width will be the main issue. If its too tall I can trim it, and I'm not running a halo or windshield runners so the only thing I'll have to worry about are the rear diagonals and door bars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehelix112 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I think you're wasting your time. For about the same amount of effort you could review this thread http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/83751-how-much-tubing-to-make-a-roll-bar/ and follow the experience there if you're on a budget. The link to the main hoop dimensions is broken, this is the correct link: http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/gallery/image/3103-main-hoop-dimensions/ Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrod Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Anyone have the dimensions of the main hoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calZ Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 That's the link to the image mentioned above. I'm not sure it it's for an S30 or S130. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74_5.0L_Z Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 The dimensions for the bar above were for an S30. The original installation was in a 1974 260Z. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
