Rollbar

I was wondering who has put a rollbar in their Z. (For track day/Solo) How difficult, can it be removed and put back in, etc?
Also, where can I find one?

Thanks,
Vince

I have got a 5 point wolf bar. Good quality and fitment. It is a bolt-in bar, but not easily removable. Be sure to check the requirements for your event. Some require the the bar to be welded in. Depending on the track event you are doing, a rollbar might not be required.

I just ordered a Kirk Racing roll bar from PFYC.com. Waiting for it to arrive. I'm going to have a local speed shop install it because the anchor plates need to be welded in. Then it's supposed to be bolt in, removable fairly easily. I'll let you know when I get it.

I installed an AutoPower 4 point bar with harness bar and diagonal brace. There are 4 plates that weld to the frame and then the bar is bolted to the 4 plates with 2 bolts at each plate. Purposely ordered the harness bar and diagonal as bolt in pieces and they remove with one bolt at each end to allow a bit more luggage space. I think I would have to take the seats out to remove the bar itself. Had the bar black krinkle powder coated. It is a quality looking piece. It would have been better if the bar had a slightly rounded hoop bar to better follow the headliner. Since the hoop bar is horizontal at the top, it does take away from some of the rear view mirror vision.
