well truthfully, the wrx's and sti's are already made very strong, i know of three friends totaling their car, two of them rolled over, and one of them going 100mph taking a turn, his whole car was destroyed, but he walked away, so truthfully, you don't really need that strong of a roll cage unless if you decide to meet a wall going 140mph, which i don't think any roll cage would do anything. the cusco roll cage is also wouldnt be a strong because most of the custom roll cages are welded on inside of the car, the cusco one is bolt on, of course the structure wouldnt be as strong

oh yeah, if you run harness with out an aftermarket seat without a splitter in the middle, you may cut your head off in a car accident

How will they do that? I don't have mine crossed in the back so I think that I'm fine. I would really just prefer a locking normal seatbelt. Where can I get one of those from?

a lil different topic...wouldnt the cage assist in handling...cuz if i was to get the cage, handling is my main objective....i dont plan to be goin 130+...as far as safety, that is an unwise decision to use alumium...think of it as a soda can...like oldmansan said, if it fails, it fails really bad
