the welds look like ass, they are placed illegally (if you're doing formula d spec) you need 6x6 1/8" plates on every point.

I'm glad the title didn't say "budget formula D spec build" then he'd get flamed by all the formula D rulebook nazi's.

To the OP: Didn't you know your welds have to be done by a professional on a TIG welder? And your cage isn't going to be functional because it's backwards. What were you thinking?!!

That is the most epic failure of a rollcage ever. I hope he doesn't try and say "I'm planning to do a rhd conversion" after naming the thread budget drift build haha. And as stated above you need plates at all points.

Build threads:
Almost everyone enjoys building their cars and sharing that experience, as well as checking out others' builds for inspiration. Sadly, far too many users have a tendency to do half-hearted builds and either rarely update or update with trivial progress. In the interest of keeping the Chat forum clear of three hundred 'Install SR, ziptie aero, rattlecan paint' threads, incomplete, or in-progress build threads are not allowed. If you have completed your build, wrangle all those pictures into a post and tell us about it, but make sure the build is finalized. If you insist on having an in-progress build, Premium members have a specialized subforum for that specific purpose.
