GB: 5/6 Point Racing Harness $375

[Al]

Due to the unsuccessful result, from the previous attempt (organized by another SAU member), I have decided to source my own supplier.

Meridian Motorsport has two brands that fit our requirements one is SPARCO the other is ERG. The Sparco belts are just under $500ea, if we were to buy 10+. The ERG harness is $375ea for a group buy of 10+.

Now, I have personally seen both items side by side and apart from the logo there is NO difference. The belt buckles and length adjusters are identical and appear to be supplied by the same manufacturer. The only difference is that the Sparco release buckle is anodized and the ERG buckle is powder-coated/painted. Straps are of the same thickness (3") and material.

Tobby (sales rep.) has stated that he sells at least twice as many of the ERG harnesses and has not yet had a bad response.

These come in 3 colours; Black, Red, and Blue.

THEY ARE FIA APPROVED

Unfortunately I am unable to locate ERC's web site and Meridian seem to have no pictures of either harness on their web site. But I have scanned a couple of pictures from the Sparco catalogue.

Just found out that these belts retail for about $440ea so $65 bux is a pretty good saving.

Please post your interest below and include colour

Al im up for 2 in black

btw are we paying meridian directly or u or?

[Al]

Personally i would prefer to pay Meridian directly, but they may want the deposit in one hit, to confirm buyers. I will need to speak to them.

anymore news yet?

[RBN1]

I saw the actual harness @Meridian and they're pretty impressive. Can't wait to get mine!

[RBN1]

guys : this is from Al

"deposits will be transferred into my account and when everyone has paid i will order the harness. Looks like we will not be getting 10 ppl though . "

[Al]

Due to the lack of interest i am stopping this GB .

But Maridian Motorsport have offered to sell these harnesses for $399 (usually $440). So if you want one just call Tobby, at Meridian(Tele: 9553 4200), and mention you are from SAU. If you are not sure how to describe the harness just say "the one Alan was organising for the SAU group buy".

All the best

Alan
