Harness Bar?

[J-D1zzL3'z_R33]

Hi guys

i wanted to install a 4 point harness in my car but wanted to keep it simple such as not having to attach them to the parcel shelf.

i know that harness bars attach from the one side of the car to the other, but i was wondering if it was possible to have a harness bar made just so that it is behind the drivers seat and not both front seats??

probz a stupid comment but im just tryin my luck

cheers

I wouldn't think so, but have you actually seen the harness bars for sale in Aust? I need one... I also don't want to go to the parcel shelf... and don't want a roll cage.... yet

I really doubt you are going to be able to make this work. the harness points need to be attached somewhere structual within the car and there is nothing where you are talking about, especially at the correct hieght for a harness to be going to. If your serious about having a harness then do it properly or its just more dangerous than having a 3 point street belt.

As for using the parcel shelf i wouldnt recomend it in a skyline. its very easy for harness bars to be installed in cars like wrx's and commodores as they have more structual mounting points to use and have a better angle from the parcel shelf to the drivers seat (skylines parcel shelf is too high).

One option is to come down between the back seat and its back rest. screw eyebolts into where the current back seatbelts are screwed in. Safety wise tho this is borderline. According to CAMS this is only within a couple degrees of being acceptable.

Im not trying to make show car so i dont care the back of my car is naked, but this is what i had done to mount a harness properly.

Just have a think about if this is worth while or you just want some bling.

Yup thats in a 33. It was made by Meridian Motorsport in Moorabbin. Very impressed with there build quality and they are just good blokes! would recommend them for any motorsport prep.

Its pretty simple process to put the seats back in too. im just lazy. its 4 hex bolts a side holding the bar in. (there is a plate with welded nuts attached on the underside of the wheel arch) and ive got cover plates i screw back in so water does splash its way through the holes)
