But maybe not...
NC Track rats need a roll bar like the GT3, but we clearly can't have nice things...

Don't take me seriously. I <3 me some NCs and i do appreciate the newfound interest in this platform by additional vendors, as i've been telling people to buy these things and NOT NA/NBs for years.

I currently own what i am planning to be my last NBs, and one of them has a GT3.

We're currently doing one last production run for the NC GT3, it's not moving at a rate reasonable enough to justify keeping the parts on the shelf...
Frankly, the GT3 looks cooler, but the RZ does everything that the GT3 does just the same, fits in the factory interior, and is actually a touch taller than the GT3 too.

I tried to send you a PM, but you have them disabled.

Does this batch include the group buy interest from your facebook post about the GT3? I added that I am ready to pay for one, but never heard anything after... Height being higher is a non-starter for me as I am running and will be keeping an unmodified OEM hardtop.

I am not interested in paying more for the RZ functionality I don't need or want (oem interior/top/etc) for my track car. $1100 was already a stretch for a bar that appears at first glance not much different than an NA/NB Hard Dog Hardcore bar. I guess I may have to send Hard Dog my money instead even though their option is FAR inferior...

Now I have received your PM, but cannot reply. I hate to junk this thread up, maybe email or a message through your website would be best?

You don't say...
There is a website, I'm working on redirecting the traffic to it, hoping to be done with it tonight.
