looking to get one soon...
anyone have one?

 

No, but I'll give you a free bump, because I'm interested as well. I'm wondering if you need a harness bar or if people are running them from the hard points in the back seats.

I would just be using it to keep me in place at auto-x. I know they aren't exactally safe for highway use. I'd use the three point belt for normal street driving.

 

got my harness from Megan Racing, but i also bought there seat
just waiting for my bracket to be made

have street roll bar on the way, in the mean time i had to use different loop bolts to hold the harness odwn in the back, the ones they sent did not fit

 

yeah i'm looking for auto-x purposes as well..

also i have stock seats and would like to keep it that way...

so.. hmm... anyone else?

 

things to remember for a harness..

SFI approval
3" belts (no 2" belts)
CAMLOCK

good brands are
HCI
Crow
Takata
Sparco
G-Force

 

tomago, how much did you spend on the seats and harness? Do the seats allow you to keep the factory 3pt for normal street driving? Is a bar necessary to mount 4 (or 5) pt harnesses? I'd hate to lose my rear seat.

 

the seats allow use of 3pt harness (stock) i paid (cant tell you what i paid for the seats, long time ago) around $80n for the harness, built a harness bar myself, so free.. expect to spend between $110 for harnesses (G-force camlocks are around that) and upwards of $500 for the crazy pimp harnesses.

SFI or FIA approved bucket seats start at around $220 and go up from there. brackets.. well, hot sure bout the tC people, but i didn't like the stupid brackets for the xA/B so i built my own, TIG welded aluminum..

 

I have G-Force 5 point 3" harnesses with Schroth racing 3" pads, excellent setup, very comfortable for daily driving and awesome on the track, harnesses were about 85 each i believe from Summitt. HTH

 

with a stock seat?

got a pic of it installed?

would really appreciate it

thanks...

 

Heres some pics, Obvioulsy not stock seats, Bride Brix II seats, full roll cage what not, but hope that helps

 

^^^^^ Very nice set up, love the seats!
And go with takata, very nice harness

 

yeah Takatas are nice if you wanna pay 900 for two harnesses, LAME

 

i dunno if you guys missed when i posted im NOT looking to modify my seats.. but nice set up outCrunU just not something im looking for at the moment...

 

I'm no expert, but from what I've heard, harnesses can be extremely dangerous without a proper roll bar/cage. Modern safety belts are more than adequate for street and light track use. It's only for extreme motorsports like road racing/rally etc. that harnesses are really necessary. If not setup properly they can do much more damage than good in an accident.

 

yes yes, however, harnesses make you SECONDS faster in a normal autoX..

i'm proof

 

Now here's a dumb question - I would like to have the harnesses with the stock seats... Am I going to be able to get away with that, or is that a big NO-NO? I don't want to modify my stock seats, or completely get rid of them. I saw a 4-point set on FastScions.com and thought those were pretty cool...

 

tim, u dork, yes u can, i have mine in, u just bolt them to the seatbelt bolts in the back seats and ull be fine... so what up buddy! lol

 

That sounds good... I was thinking the ones from FastScions.com that look pretty good. Yes? No? Maybe?

...and yes, dude, I'm doing good. PM me your number... I dun have it - we need to hang out sometime! HAha... *sorry for the threadjack*

 

One of the tC drivers at our autoxes runs a g-force 4 point with the long straps. The bottom straps are bolted into the two OEM belt points on the floor and the top straps are crossed and attached to the LATCH points on the back seat.
