Akuma Motorsorts Harness Bar

Kevin@AkumaMS · 08-03-2012, 11:47 AM

Yes, Were back engineering another product for your 370z

As far as harness bars goes not too many people out there on the market that make one for the 370z. So we figured it'd be fun to make our own

.
Heres how its been going so far

The bar is currently at coast2coast powdercoating in Morganville, NJ for a fresh coat of Dormant Purple. I will update pics later today with the final product...ENJOY!!!

Your bar is about a 18" from the shocks towers so IMO you shouldn't call it that. As you can see in your pictures the shocks are already braced from below and the factory brace bar that you are replacing is basically just for looks. I think you would have better response if you lable your part as a harness bar as that is what others are calling this modification.

Kevin,you might as well turn that into a harness bar for racing harness.......

Does the shop have it's own 370Z? Or is that a customer's car?

Kevin@AkumaMS · 08-03-2012, 01:57 PM

That would be Johns 370z

I like "Harness Bar" too. Need to add some eyelets to bolt harness to.

Would be cool to match exterior or interior car color rather than have it some additional color inside the vehicle. I personally wouldn't want a big purple bar in the back of my Z. Might end up looking like some big falic symbol.

Awesome, I'm assuming this is heavier than the stock bar? Can we get an guestimate of the price and release date? Are we going to be able to choose the color we want?

CrownR426 · 08-03-2012, 09:23 PM

Did not hear good things over on the subbie forums about A.M. just sayin!

cdoxp800 · 08-03-2012, 10:01 PM

I am about to make one of these myself. So how much you going to sale these for?

Trips · 08-03-2012, 10:10 PM

Kevin you do have abilty to change the title of this Thread to reflect that you are speaking of a Harness Bar.

If you want me to change it? just let me know

Work looks good

370Z JT · 08-04-2012, 03:05 AM

Can you make it in Ti and sell it for a fraction of the price of other JDM brands.

Kevin@AkumaMS · 08-04-2012, 07:44 AM

This is just a prototype for you guys to see and if there is enough interest we may make some for production. We dont have a price yet but we will always be very competitive with other companies.
