When are you required to have a roll cage? I got the impression it was just with certain clubs or series, or when you started doing wheel to wheel, but I really have no idea. I've read a lot of conflicting information on the safety of cages in cars you're going to be driving on the street, and there's no way I'd want a cage in even my weekend/fun car if it meant it was unsafe to be driving around without a helmet. Maybe a better question is if there's a point in trying to compromise and have a track car / weekend driver, or if you really need a dedicated track car.

MY Z has 120k miles on it and a lot of the bushings are shot. Nissan doesn't make replacements, they want you to buy new compression rods/etc, so I was looking at aftermarket replacement bushings. Whiteline makes a full set, and SPL makes spherical bearings to replace some of the bushings. Ignoring NVH issues, are there any positives/negatives over going with spherical bearings over polyurethane bushings? The consensus on the Z forums is that the SPL bearings are better replacements for certain pieces, like the compression rod bushing. I'm wondering if the wear will be drastically accelerated on the spherical bearings over poly bushings, or if there's potential problems I'm not aware of. My car is stock ride height, FWIW. I figured the track day thread would have more experience regarding these issues.
