Got a suggested time? Still not sure what is going on this weekend for me due to travel and everything going on here in the office.

I'm interested too, just need to make sure I'm free, this house buying **** is eating up all my time.

Exactly what I've been going through. And then wait for the lull. It's a lie! They're just waiting to strike and ask for more documents when you wind up busy again with other ****. Ugh. Hopefully mine closes on time. I'll be SOL if it doesn't!

Luckily so far I'm not supposed to close until september, so I have lots of time. But jesus you are right, when you think you have a free day...you are so incredibly wrong lol.

The house buying process does suck but was kind of fun. It is such a relief when you finally grab the keys! I still need to have a party at my new place. I kinda want to build a deck first though otherwise we'll be partying in the garage haha.

Oh and I forgot to mention I bought a Bride Zeta III for my car. Stoked about that! I just need a robispec harness bar and some harnesses now.

How about dinner on Sunday around 7:00pm?

Onelownismo · 07-22-2014, 01:48 PM

Is it unsafe to run factory seat belts with a racing seat? (If that's even possible depending on where the seat belt can bolt to)

I would imagine that because the seat is essentially designed to work in conjunction with the seatbelt that it would be ill-advised to run anything but the specified safety belt designed for the product. You might be "safe" but would it keep you from being ejected from the car? Would the pretensioners allow the belts to tighten appropriately? If i were to do seats i'd do belts too. Just my thoughts. You might be perfectly fine. Should ask Jason.

It is safe and most after market seat mount that are specifically made for the 370Z have a spot to relocate the factory seat belt mount to. Like this one made by Planted.

I'm down for a 7pm dinner!

So I had a hell of a time trying to figure out which rails to get and where to find them. I wanted the bride rails but I could only find them for a z33. I did find some for a z34 but the website seemed sketchy. I also read somewhere that the z33 ones would fit the z34 but I noticed they had different part numbers so I was hesitant. Then I looked at wedge and didn't realize I had to buy the base, the slider, and then the side brackets for my seat. The cost was going to add up quick. Upon further research I found the buddy club super low seat rails. They have the silder, side brackets, and two seperate bases which is nice. I'll receive them on Friday so I'll let you guys know how they are.

As far as a belt/harness, I'm buying harnesses and the robispec bar, but I'm impatient and in the meantime would like to install my seat.

VABAM · 07-23-2014, 12:04 PM

Which harnesses are you using?
