Martin_t5r Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) After searching for a while for a harness bar solution in the uk, I've found a company called GC Fabrictions that are now about to do a run of production on bolt in harness bars for the 350z. Made from 45mm CDS steel and powder coated satin black. Should be available in the next few weeks Just seen this has been said by another member in a post, no worries if people are aware just thought I'd share the info Edited February 23, 2015 by Martin_t5r 1 Quote

Martin_t5r Posted February 23, 2015 Author Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) You beat me to it with the link bolts to oem seat belt mounts, and bolts to rear strut bar via existing holes Edited February 23, 2015 by Martin_t5r 1 Quote

Scott TMN Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) That's my car!!! That was made as a jig for him to make others, I'm collecting and fitting mine on the Saturday. Grant at GC Fabrications is a good mate, and can vouch for the quality of his work. Some of the cages I have seen him make are a work of art! Once I have fitted mine on Saturday, I will upload fitted pictures with the plastics etc back in place, ( I can confirm then which plastics will need cutting if you want to put them back) I Will then organize a group buy for you guys if you like? 5 people is £190 10 people is £180 powdercoated satin black Another pic Edited February 23, 2015 by Scott_f91 2 Quote
A9H-RX Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Only thing I noticed is fitting harnesses, it doesn't look like they will fit straight with the seat as the cross brace gets in the way? 1 Quote
Zedd Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Only thing I noticed is fitting harnesses, it doesn't look like they will fit straight with the seat as the cross brace gets in the way? +1 How would this work? Quote
KyleR Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Only thing I noticed is fitting harnesses, it doesn't look like they will fit straight with the seat as the cross brace gets in the way? One strap either side? Quote
StevoD Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Yea the strap would have to sit where the other bar is welded, If you look at THe graffiti or sparco it has loops to hold the harness in the correct position this doesn't and could result in harness slipping round the bar and not holding you in the seat with the harnesses either side of the 45 degree bar Could well be fatal in a crash Edited February 24, 2015 by StevoD Quote
RobPhoboS Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Something like this added to it ? 1 Quote
StevoD Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Yea and that cross bar needs moving as that right where the harness strap should sit Quote
Scott TMN Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 "The proper one is wider and comes with ali bolt on brackets to stop harness slippage" 1 Quote
A9H-RX Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 "The proper one is wider and comes with ali bolt on brackets to stop harness slippage" Got picture of new one? Quote
Scott TMN Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 As I say I'll be getting my one Saturday, which will be the first he's made after the 'jig' in the picture. I will know more then, and will upload more detailed fitted pixtures then 2 Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 Is it sad I just want one as it looks cool? Not going to run harnesses but would love the look of that covered in alcantara Quote
Grundy Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Is it sad I just want one as it looks cool? Not going to run harnesses but would love the look of that covered in alcantara noooooo it will look like jimmy savillies kid play area #teamtarmac 3 Quote
Ceejay29 Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Is it sad I just want one as it looks cool? Not going to run harnesses but would love the look of that covered in alcantara If it bolts to the OEM seat belt mounts does that not mean that you have to run bucket seats and harnesses? 1 Quote
