KE70 Rollcage

[chrizer]

Just want to know if anyone is using a ae86 rollcage in their KE70.
Is there any modification and how well does it fit.

i belive ae86 half cage fits but a full cage requires a little modification...

but don't quote me on that

I think it will fit, but the bars across the top will sit lower because the ae86 has a lower roofline...anyone confirm?

You need to modify the main hoop so it sits higher... otherwise it fits perfect

i have a safety 21 half cage in my ae71

KE70 and ae71 = same interior layout
ae86 and e7 way different rear interior layout. Rear strut towers are different and thats just the start.

... so from what the other guys said ae86 half cage should be K if slightly modded into a ke70/ae71, full cage nope??? yeah guys???

Does anyone have pics of how/what they modified the 86 cage to fit it in the E7 PLEASE?

i belive the full cage fits but the bar comes close to your head so shims or a plate are used to raise it cause the ae86 roof is lower than the e7 plus u gotta cut into ur dash i think i could be wrong though

Yes the ke70 roof is about two inches or so higher so it needs to be modified to be worthy of engineering.
Besides, It would be pointless to not sort out this problem as it would sit lower than your head if not modified

I'm sorta tall tho so could be me...

Also I'm pretty sure a full cage fits in a ke70, ask beally (driftke70) pretty sure he has a full safety 21 cage
