Approval and eligibility
This cage is listed as FIA Approved. Check that against the regulations for the championship or class you run in before you buy, because eligibility varies by discipline and by year.
If a cage needs signing off for competition, the paperwork usually has to follow the car, so keep the certification with the logbook. Worth understanding before you commit: what a roll cage actually does in a crash.
What this cage design gives you
This one is built as a single fixed diagonal. Here is what each part of that does.
- Single diagonal. One diagonal brace across the main hoop. It stops the hoop folding sideways and is the minimum most regulations accept.
More tube means more protection and more stiffness, and also more weight and a harder car to live with. Pick the design around the regulations you run under and how often you actually get in and out of the car.
Bolt-in or weld-in?
Bolt-in cages mount on spreader plates through the floor and sills. No welding, no permanent change to the shell, and they can come out again. That makes them the sensible choice for a road car, a track day car, or anything you might sell on standard.
Weld-in cages are welded straight to the shell. You get a stiffer car and a better load path into the structure, which is why the sharper end of stage rally and circuit racing runs them. The trade is that it is permanent, it wants a proper fabricator, and the interior usually has to come out to do it.
For most people the deciding factor is the regulations. Check what your class requires first, then pick on practicality. If you are between the two, tell us what you compete in and we will point you at the right one.
Fitting the Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage
Bolt-in means it goes in on mounting plates rather than being welded to the shell. Easier to fit at home, and reversible if the car changes hands.
Dry fit the whole cage before anything is permanent. Check door and window clearance, seat position, and that you can still get in and out in a helmet with a harness on.
Roll bar padding is not optional on tubes near the driver or passenger head. Budget for FIA-rated padding when you order the cage, not afterwards.
Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage questions
Is the Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage a direct fit?
It is built for this shell, so the mounting points and tube runs are already correct on a standard car. Previous accident damage or a non-standard interior can still change what is needed.
Can I fit the Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage myself?
A competent home mechanic can fit a bolt-in cage. It needs care over the spreader plates and the torque on the mounting bolts, and it is a two-person job to get the main hoop in.
Will it pass scrutineering?
It is listed as FIA Approved. Check the current regulations for your class, and keep the certification with the car. If you tell us what you compete in we will confirm before you order.
Does it affect my insurance?
Yes. A cage is a notifiable modification. Tell your insurer before the car goes back on the road, and be specific about the cage type, because some insurers treat bolt-in and weld-in differently.
Do I need harnesses as well?
A cage with a harness bar is designed to mount harnesses properly. If you are fitting harnesses at the same time, see our harnesses, and make sure the mounting angles suit the seat you are running.
How much weight does a cage add?
A rear cage is the lightest option, a full multipoint cage the heaviest, and material choice moves it again. T45 saves weight over CDS for the same strength, which is why it costs more. Weight gain is usually worth it for what the cage does to shell stiffness.
Can I still use the back seats?
Depends on where the backstays land. Check the design listed above, and tell us how you use the car if you need it confirmed.
Is the Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage paint finished?
Cages are normally supplied in the manufacturer’s standard finish. If you need a specific powder coat colour, ask us before ordering because it usually adds lead time.
Tell us the championship or class you are running in and we will confirm the Toyota Corolla AE86 6 Point Bolt-In Roll Cage suits the regulations before you buy.
