In my search for Rollbars, I found a company that would make a rollbar for the car, but they need the car for 2 days, and unfortunately are too far away from me. They're in Alabama. If anyone is interested in a rollbar and are near enough to alabama, the Kirk Racing Products will build one for you. Seems like a nice company to deal with. For what it's worth, if you go to http://www.ioportracing.com they list an autopower rollbar for the mirage.


Here's the email that I sent and they sent back to me.


> Can you guys make a 4point rollbar for a '89
> Mitsubishi Mirage Hatchback?

Response:
Thanks for your interest. I am sorry to say that we make bars for Starions and Eclipse, but do not currently have a pattern for the Mirage. The only option that I can offer would be to build one in the car if it were in our shop in Alabama for about 2 days. Realizing this is not always an option,
please let me know if you need more information about this. If there is
anything I can do to help, please let me know.

I am not familiar with different types of rollbars. What is a 4 point? Are there more points? less points?

Here is some good information.

http://www.ioportracing.com/rollbar.htm

"point" refers to the number of mounting points. A 4point rollbar bolts down in 4 places.

Mark Mcnamara told me a place somewhat close to me (rallispec.com) does it for $1500. once my tranny comes back from TRE I wouldnt mind dropping my mirage off there for a roll bar pattern for anyone. lemme know.

Andy (owner of Rallispec) is one of the most talented fabricators anywhere. Keep in mind he is always swamped with work, and be prepared to be without your car for a while. However his work is well worth the wait.

However, 1500 is quite pricy for a roll bar/cage unless it is a 10+ point cage. I just paid 450 for a 6pt cage in my Mirage from a local shop.

I dont know how many points the $1500 roll cage was for. but if anybody is interested, I have a spare Colt Turbo just sitting in my yard, so when I drop the 2.0 in out of the Talon, & it can move under its own power, I wouldnt mind Andy holding on to it for a month or so. its gonna be funny though, 4G63 with 1.6 flywheel, PP, clutch, manifold, turbo, & exhaust. Hey, its just temporary. Just so I dont have to put the tow hooks on it to move it around. :grin:
