4 Point Roll Bar, Seat, Harness Installed

After some deliberation I pulled the trigger and had Mazworx weld in a 4 point roll bar.

I bought the BRZ to be used as a track car mainly. I want to be able to use my HANS as I hope to run the car quite frequently. I checked into the bolt-in roll bar and harness bar options but I just kept coming back to welding a bar in. Worked with Mazworx on many other projects and they exceeded my expectations.

Just got done fitting the interior back in last night and have it all prepped for run Daytona with NASA this weekend. Will need to pull the interior back out and have the roll bar painted after this weekend.

We just had to notch the rear side plastics and cut the rear truck fabric to wrap around the cross bar. The only interior pieces that couldn't go back in are the rear seat backs (the seat bottoms fit just fine)

All in all it came out great...still can bolt in the stock seat and use the stock seat belt but being able to run my race seat with harness and HANS will be very nice.

Was this a custom one-off roll bar? I don't see one available for our chassis on their website.

It was custom made for my car but he did make a jig for it so in theory he can sell you your own u-weld kit...call the office and talk to Mark.

Did you remove all the seat belts for the rear?

Can you update the pics of the finished product if possible?

Can you take some pics of the fitment with the interior in? This looks like something I would like, if fits awesome and the price is right, I wouldn't mind picking up something like this. How far back is this bar from the normal seating position? Granted I am still on stock seat, but I have it back almost as far as possible, maybe 2-3 clicks foward.
