These racing harnesses are all FIA approved. No 4/6 point harness are ADR or dotars approved for use in a street car – legally you have to use your lap sash on the street – no exceptions. You can have the 4/6 point fitted to the car, but legally you have to be using the lap sash as well.

See here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...0entry1882711 Post # 49 - Matt has provided photo's of how most of us have setup our harnesses. My suggestion is to seek expert advise from a qualified CAMS scrutineer (or Meridian) as to your individual setup, as safety is of the highest importance. Many people have raised valid questions to the validity of some installation methods. I personally will stick with the installation setup as shown in the photo's, as this works for me.

Not sure which one would be the best one to go with. I would think that their isn't going to be much difference in quality at all. Both have 5 years FIA stadards attached. I have a ERG one and it's good. They are pretty easy to install. They just come with some eyelets that are threaded the same as you existing seatbelt bolts. So you just unscrew the existing seat belt anchor bolts and screw these in as a replacement. Then it's just a case of hooking the ends of each belt to the eylets. Which is a clip on/off belay setup similar to rock climbing gear. The top harness belts attach to the rear passenger seat bolts between your rear seats. So the beauty of the setup is that you can still keep your exising belts and have no problems removing and re-installing at any time. A few of the vic guys have these already, so we can show you how we did ours. This is the case with the four point setup in a standard street trip vehicle anyway. Obviously if you were running a cage, or other strut bars, or 6-point there is additional work and you should probably consult a CAMS scrutineer at a minimum. The other good thing about these are they bolt into the standard ADR approved seat belt mounts, so you know these wont just let go, and have been crash tested.

Great comments guys. A fantastic thread for all to take note of. Since this regs change will affect a lot of us in 2006 I have spoken with Toby @ Meridian and we have setup a group buy on harnesses. MotorQuality harnesses in red, blue and black. Group buy price of $329 for the 4 point & $365 for the 6 point harness - Minimum group purchase of 5 harnesses See here - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=102480

It might not be a good sales pitch, but it suits you to tea! My entry form was sent off today.

Same weekend as Phillip Island WRX Club Sprint. Having trouble making a decision here...

Unless you have photo's of bikini's and cars.

Also hit the full line on your dipstick, then add one litre. This has kept all us VIC GTR guys going for two years even without sump baffles.

Happy birthday mate! I donated 4 stripped gemini's as a birthday present.. enjoy.

When James see's this thread it's going to be on.... Can't wait!

Just a tip. Don't do this run with Blaise and Snowie in the rain! They are both mad.

It's everyone's birthday lately.. Happy Birthday Biatch!

Bah ! That sux... I was looking forward to the pics today.

Geoff - Yeah I use the handbrake! Which was good at the start of the day, but was a little stretched by the end of the day. With those semi-comps you really have to rip it hard to make the heavy arse slide. We found out at this years Dutton that the GTR's that drove the event were quicker than the ones that handbraked it. This was true until you had to go round a cone at more than say about 150 degrees.

I went for traction! Damn GTR wouldn't over steer even with foot to the floor in 2nd. My hand almost reached down for the torque splitter for some RWD action.

Hi David, Have a closer look at the results .pdf You will see that there is more than one page. The other pages have the times and penalties seperatly.

Can you take your car down there adz?

So who has actually put in an entry form for this? I know Blaise and Snowy aren't going anymore... Should I bother, or is no one going?

Well done to all on a 100% succesfull weekend. I think everyone thouroughly enjoyed themselves. It was great to see the girls out there ripping it up too. Well done ladies. A big thanks to all the burnt volunteers on the back track. Thanks for all the praise and positive comments from you guys. It makes the time we spent on preparing this event all worth it, and next year we'll try to make it bigger and better.... if thats even possible! If anyone else has any footage from the day, I will be making a DVD of this event similar to the last one and would like submissions of DV Tapes (I can pickup and return), or RAW .AVI Video. Contact me here [email protected] to discuss. Thanks, Chris.

Hehe nice plan, but I doubt your 5 seconds would have been made up on the speed I kept through those things. I was still on boost in 2nd and used the grass through two of them on my fastest run. Was a little scarey and still dont know how I didn't hit one, but I get lots of practise at chicanes round my back streets.
