Harness Bar Installed. :)

Rusty

The factory cross bar weights 1.5 lbs with brackets. It's .114" or 2.89mm thick. You can see how thick the brackets are.

Aluminum is strong enough right? , JK but seeing this now semi worries me. Car is still in the shop so I have about a week to find a replacement. Since we are already in the thread, any suggestions for a cheap strong bar, and also a more expensive better quality bar? I need something I can buy today, not contact 10 different people and try to get custom made

Honestly, unless you're going all out with a full cage, appropriate seats, 6 point harnesses and a HANS, you're better off with the OEM restraints and airbags. Nissan has a lot more on the line than Bob's Discount Harness Bars & Chicken, so they over engineer everything and crash test the hell out of it. Also, "cheap" should not be a concern when dealing with brakes, safety systems, whisky or condoms.

Belts on the street, harnesses on the track.

You got lucky twice. Most people don't get a third try at it.

I have both proper seats and proper belts. No reason for 6 point because the 4 points I have are anti-sub. I understand that roll cage is usually needed in case of the roof collapsing but this is a street car not a track car. I'm noy rolling this thing or even remotely close. I just like how the harnesses keep you in the seat. Cipher bar looks good enough.

Yeah, aluminum is strong enough IF it's designed for the application. In this case. It's not. MA Motorsports makes a good harness bar. I've seen their bar at ZDayZ this year. Talk to Daelen. He's a good guy. Tell him Russ sent you.

With this set-up. You keep the stock cross bar. And you have better angles with the belts.

Thank you for the help. That looks like a pretty decent bar and will hold up well. Also won't get in the way of the seats.

Rusty,

This harness bar does not attach to anything in these pictures.

The bar comes with a drop bolt that goes through the metal plating. Essentially getting two contact points for security.

It does not attach to the cross bar!

I think we get it, you like the MA bar. I do too..... Just not enough to spend $650 on it.

Rusty

No. I like any bar better then the stock aluminum cross bar. That thing is just a piece of bling. No structural strength to it. The MA Motorsports is about the best one I've seen. The other one that was posted is not bad either. My biggest gripe about them. They all use the upper seat belt mounting for their mounting with a longer bolt. I just don't trust that area of the roof, side pillar area. Having an engineering degree. I look at things a bit differently.
