4 Point Racing Harness

Not sure about the R32 but I assume it's similar to an R33.

When i bought my harness i got some eye bolts with it. You replace the rear seatbelt bolts (inbetween the upper and lower cushions) with the eye bolts. And then same with the front bolts, usually where the front seatbelt is bolted in, replace with eye bolts and the harness can clip on and off there with ease. Do a search on these forums, there is info about it.

sorry to thread mine, but can the rear straps be bolted anywhere other than the rear seatbelt bolts? ie, so i dont have to muck aroundif i wanna put people in teh back seat...

The answer is no. The rear seatbelt points are the only strong enough "stock" places to utilise (DO NOT USE THE BABY RESTRAINTS!). Your only other option is to have some sport of custom made harness bar built. This by far is a much better option if your willing to spend the $$$. Using the rear setbelt bolts are way borderline on acceptable harness angle from your shoulders... under a heaving impact your spine will be compressed!

the harness most defintly should come of your shoulders completely horizontal, although a slight down angle is still ok. Ive had a harness bar built which cost me about $500, althuogh it does still require the removal of my back seats to bolt in. At the end of the day how hard is it to remove your back seats? In my 33 its 2 bolts for the back rests and 2 bolts for the seats? pretty simple me thinks.

You can just unclip the harness when not in use and remove it completely. That's what i do. Fit it for track days, remove it after. the eye bolts hold the standard belt in place same as the stock bolts.

yep very true, I think 15 degrees down from horizontal is the maximum allowed by CAMS, I hit a wall at 90kmh and my 4 pt was bolted to the rear seatbelt eyelets, back hurt for around 2 weeks
