After receiving a warm welcome from fellow members, BBi Autosport is pleased to present our Porsche 991 Street Cup Roll Bar as part of our Street Cup Track Package. The BBi Autosport Bar features a 2 piece design and high strength seamless tubing (1.75” x 0.095, 1.5” x 0.083) for excellent strength to weight ratio. With our sensible design approach, the 2 piece design mounts to frame structure, utilizing factory bolts, to provide strongest mounting points and maximum protection. For superior strength and rigidity, the bar utilizes “X” braces on both front and rear sections and each joint has been meticulously TIG welded by hand. Bolt-in installation is accomplished by using Inner Diameter Tube Clamps that are CNC turned and milled for a precise fit. These unique joints allow us to eliminate the more traditional slip fit tubes with an unsightly through-bolt and nut.

Features
  • 1.75” x 0.095”, 1.5” x 0.083” high strength seamless tubing utilized for excellent strength to weight ratio
  • TIG welded and utilizes “X” braces on front and rear sections for superior strength and rigidity
  • Mounts to frame structure (utilizing factory bolts) to provide strongest mounting points and maximum protection
  • Utilizes laser cut mounting plates & inner diameter tube clamps that are CNC turned and milled for a precise fit
  • Designed to work with stock seats or any aftermarket seats on the market
  • Allows full seat travel to accommodate taller drivers
  • Can be used with stock seat belts or 6 point harnesses for track use
  • Designed to work with wrap-around style harnesses while optional eyelet bolt provisions are available for clip-in harnesses
  • OEM fit & finish. The main hoop contours entire arch of the roof with an even 3/16 inch gap
  • Finished in satin black powder coat. Other colors available Bolt-in installation requires no drilling and minimal carpet trimming
  • Made in USA

I am curious as to how you attach your shoulder harness to these bars. Doesn't the horizontal bar need to be in the front. Just sayin

SmokinGTS,

That is a very good question. The harnesses are wrapped around the horizontal bar of the rear section just like the Cup Car:

Nice welding joint. Too bad I've already got the GMG roll bars.

BBi Autosport, why would I ever buy anything from you?! I called you 2 months ago for help on a project, and I have yet to receive a return call. In fact, I tried four separate times to reach you by phone, and even sent you an email. Every time I called, your receptionist was unable to help, each time just patching me through to your voicemail. Obviously we see how far that got me, as you don't return calls. And don't reply to emails either. BAD BUSINESS. Other forum members beware.

Pardon my ignorance but I've been told that the shoulder strap attachment point should be as close as possible to the seatback

Nice welds BTW.

Recommendations vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The distance on the BBI cage, which we carry as well in a slightly different variation, is the same as you see it in a 991 Cup.
The distance is not as important as the angle in which the belts run thru the seat.

Eilig,

Please accept our apologies for not responding to your inquiries. We have grown exponentially this year and admittedly incidents like this can slip through the cracks. After looking through our email inboxes, I cannot identify the emails that you have sent us. To the best of my memory, I don't recall receiving any inquiries for a 991 GT3 but I can be wrong.

In any case, I would definitely like to follow up on your inquiry if you can help provide me with more details. My direct line at the shop (714)581-8391 and my email address is Jerry@BBiAutosport.com. We will review it to see it is something that is we can accommodate at this time as we are currently swamped with many cars and projects on the schedule. If it is something that we cannot reasonably accommodate at this time, then we will politely decline in timely manner. While we love to keep everyone happy and build awesome cars, we have to deal with realistic constraints of time and resources.

In our attempt to better serve the Porsche market, we are currently working hard to increase our capabilities with new staff, new facility, and new product catalog this year. We brought on one more experienced Porsche technician last week and we are still keeping an eye out or additional support staff to meet the growing demand and improve the overall customer experience. While we have a few growing pains like many other businesses, our ultimate goal is to deliver exceptional service and innovative products.

Jerry, Please PM me the availability and price for the above. Thank you. Allan

The distance would be more of an issue with nylon belting.

Here are a few pictures of our BBi 991 GT3 StreetCup Roll Bar installed.
To match the matte white vinyl wrap exterior, we gave the bar a custom matte white finish.

Thanks Marius for chiming in. As our dealer, your expertise and motorsports background is highly valued! :D
