Surely it has been real! I have no clue as to why he took it so personally??
I did not do anything to his car. I did it to mine and any risk taken is mine!
What's the big deal? Go figure!! I did not expect to find twitter or the forum,
LOL..

I apologize for waking up the bears on this topic. I simply wanted to impart the knowledge that I gained from my research into aftermarket seats, harness bars and harnesses.

I understand that you feel safer while using a harness, and I thought they were the safer option as well; but the truth is, for road driving, harnesses are highly recommended against and even more so with an improper mounting point, which anything that uses the stock brace location is.

I know it sucks when you spend that kind of money and the general consensus is negative, however, I implore you to take our advice. The bar is beautiful, but just as a show piece. If you want to utilize your harness, please look into a proper harness bar. There are custom options that aren't too intrusive and will provide you with some of the safety you were looking for. As for the harness. Hopefully you bought one with an anti-submarining system, because not having one while on the road is really dangerous. I know you say that you won't get into an accident, but that's why they call them accidents, you never know when one will happen, regardless of your precautions.

You brought up motorcycles. I think that's a great example, because quality safety gear can be the difference between walking away from a get-off and not. The same applies for cars. Just because you are in a cage does not mean being less safe is OK.

OP is so fúcking old, decrepit, and brain dead he doesn't care.

Somehow his old áss's reflexes will save him from any and every car accident




But thank you for your input :tiphat:

This thread reminds of the "370z" group reactions/comments on Facebook. Sad that it's hitting our forums now.

Ehhhhhhhhh, I try not to let it hit the forum... I try reporting it too...
But the OP is smoking something... And needs to be informed/put in his place

it has the anti-submarine system. It is safely anchored to the both the frame as well as the tower brace. And as noted the stock seat belt is also still on board. Thanks for the comment.

Everyone likes to get their two cents in, it seems. One day they may even have enough for a whole dollar! SMH

And one day, my friend, you might grow up enough to avoid name calling when another does not agree with you? Let's hope and pray for a sucessful outcome! If not, then you might consider the value of silence.

Growth and maturation, for you, will be a slow process, it seems? Good luck with that!:tiphat:

Public Service Announcement!

The use of the tower brace other than what it was designed for is NOT SAFE!

And you do it at your own risk!



Im sure the Op is aware of this, and could understand not wanting to put others at potential risk for his opinion.


Thank You for sharing though the bar looks great! :yum:
