Short of adding a sunroof to the targa insert this it the most ridig you're going to get and still see skyline. I've seen a few different designs of these. Essentially you're turning the car into a T-Top model just with a far less obvious center bar. I saw one which was welded in place and the targa top fit over it.... and not much head roof was sacrificed. The owner used oval shaped steel to reduce it's depth.

I saw a thread on Supramania about those targa braces. Is there somewhere i can buy one without having to fab it up myself? I love taking my targa off, but if i hit a corner going more than 15mph the whole car turns into a Twizzler. lol

Sorry, I don't know of anyone making these right now. You could post up on the two busiest sites SM and SF and see if anyone is or is interested in making one.... Or perhaps we'll get a lucky break and someone will post one here... hell I didn't know anyone was making CF roofs. (I wonder if they make T-tops for 2's?)

I'm sure someone has done it. Is your targa glass?! That thing must weigh a ton!

How about reinforcing the underside of the car?
