Harness Bar...?

[Adz2332]

Hey all,

Lots of people have different opionions re harness bars.

Im looking at running one in the r33 gtst (pic below of style)

What are peoples takes on these?

Also with that type of bar is harness mounting to the rear seat belt mounts? and the lap part to the normal front seat belt holes?

what is the better option 4 or 6 point harness? I wont be running hans...

And also the middle clip seems to differ alot. whats the easiest to use? pics?

Thanks

I've been using one for years. They are great. Just the universal ebay one.

Thanks mate, do you have any pics? and of how its mounted etc?

Thanks

Use the seat belt bolts that came with the car, just removing a few spacers etc.

Then using the existing lower belt belt retainer bolts as well.

Any pics in mate

Look like this

It mounts to the rear seatbelt bolts

You can slap the stock seats back in

And it nice and light

Ill find a Fitted pic as well

I went to inlets in the rear as I need to occasionally fit a baby seat

[Adz2332]

That would be great mate

[fatz]

some pics for you

shows you where it mounts

seats go back in

and you can even have passengers with it in( if you hated them)

Looks good. Did u find any problems with the harness moving around because theres no ummm locating mounts on the bar? If u know what I mean

[fatz]

if you hop in the back and swing on it, you can move it about 2 inches up or down

once the harness is tight it doesnt move as its tentioned up

if it did move it would only tighten the harnes on your chest ( unlike the one in your pick above which is in compression and if something got loose your head smashes the steering wheel... but r31 owners dont think of these things)

Just found this cool harness bar that Trackart does.

That looks pretty good.
It might just be the angle, but it seems like the harness might be resting on the back of the seat though

I recently went through the process of sourcing and reinstalling all the standard rear trim inc parcel shelf and seats. May touch it but it'll be very close and the rear back part has a bit of extra foam on it that sticks out to hide gap between the parcel shelf. Shouldn't be an issue.

Might call them up and ask them how much for the bar. Looks to be very easy to install.

Once again I find my answer at SAU without even asking

Did u end up getting a price on that harness bar as it totally looks the goods to me!

It was written on one of the comments on FB but they may have since removed it- $6-700 installed. They need your car to be able to make and fit it.

I looked into harness bars about 9 months ago and ended up getting a half cage with harness bar. I found that a good harness bar was going to be $600-700, and a half cams approved cage with paperwork was a bit over $900 from Fabraications.

For the extra couple of hundred I also have roll over protection and a stiffer chassis. All my squeaks and rattles have gone. It feels like a brand new car!
