There are 4 point harnesses and there are 4 point harnesses. Like Razeolab said, a proper ASM harness should be fine.
With regards to your anecdote...correlation...causation. you know the drill. The number of times I've seen people not even tighten their harnesses properly.... Submarining in a...
+1 on the HANS and harness (although I opted for 4 point not 6 point). Ideally, I believe a harness should also be accompanied by a roll cage. Harness = less give than a seatbelt and is therefore more dangerous in something like a roll-over.
But again, I went for a 4 point harness so I'm going...
Yep. Have Sparco seats on order. 4 point harnesses though not 6. 5 is a terrible choice IMO not sure why anyone would want that strap positioned like that
Tires and brakes may make you faster, but seats make the experience so much better and allow you to become a better driver. If i had to do things all over again, and considering the fact that i'm building a car that sees a lot of track time, i'd probably do seats before almost anything else.
Just go it on too. I went for the 330mm Sparco flat bottom suede wheel and the CF paddle shifters. Feels absolutely amazing. I also ordered the dynamic control module, but get this, they sent it to the wrong country. Hoping i don't get screwed over here
Update on this. Have a "fix" now in place, thanks to the shop that i frequent. They suggested i try this exhaust flap control thing, and it worked. Still not ideal because it's something i should be able to do by toggling sport mode on and off, but i'll take it. I'm no longer the obnoxious guy...
Looks and feels great. Looks a bit bigger in this picture than it is in real life. It's a 330mm. Clicky paddle shifters feel as good as advertised
Don't really need to remove the steering wheel at this point, but that's going to change soon as i have seats on the way. So....got this 3D...
Never really liked the OEM steering wheel. Doesn't feel good plus it's a bit on the big side for my taste. So, operation airbag delete is about to commence. Opted for a 330mm Sparco flat bottom alcantara wheel.
Will have seats, harnesses and a hans device in the near future....but the car still...
