This sounds like one of the old Car & Driver Grand Am cars...they are sweet!

Negative...this was one of the first Zs built in North america ..run by Wright tunning ..Schuitemaker motorsports 350EVO. We raced it in Grand am cup ( which is now Conti challenge) in 2003-2005.
This car was the 2nd car we built and was raced primarily in 2004 mid season on..and 3 races in 2005.

I know this is a necro post, but I really need GOOD photos of the RC's cage configuration.

Particularly the door bars, forward loop/A Pillar treatment.

Anyone got any?

I know you want pics of the RC but I still think Fixxercask has the nicest looking cage I've ever seen in a Z. It feels nice and open in the cabin still too. I'm aiming for something very similar in my 350Z.

Yep, great guy. Thats the guy I am taking my car to get the cage done

The 350Z (Fixxercask) and RC (factory) cage are both so-so. The best cage design is still the Doran Racing style Door-Bars (Copied by many now in Grand-am) and also a Window Bar is a no-brainer in my opinion.
