yes trunk cage, i believe gt-spec has one? they are around 300 but you have to cut that plastic piece in the back of the trunk.

this w/ a rear sway bar makes the car entirely different

I've had various trunk cages, but the prostitutes always figure out a way to escape...

I have no idea which cage is best. I chose the GTSpec, in part, because it weighed ~9lbs:

I have the GTspec as well and love it, very, very light as well. Hey FJF, what trunk carpet is that? Looks so much better than the stock piece.

Thanks! It's a Ralliart trunk mat. I picked it up in the classifieds. It is very well made and it fits nicely with the cage installed. It also doesn't seem to weigh too much, so it's a win-win arrangement.

hahah, it's borderline a borat joke.

There was a thread on here a while ago or on the 5g mirage forums that the mounting points are incorrect with these. I can't find the damn thread.

I wish there was some real data on if these things really do anything. Everything I read is what people say they feel, or want to feel.

Huh? You're asking for some real data - whatever that means - yet you cite an unknown thread from a venue you cannot recall, written by undetermined individuals, reciting nothing more than a speculative passage solely driven by hearsay as the basis for your comment. Brilliant.
