Default Looking into getting a Stable Energies Harness Bar .......

and looking for at least 5 people who might interested in getting one. After the ACNA nationals - i'm definitely going to get a harness bar and safety harness. Stablenergies will be willing to do a discount on their bar and Deist harness systems with five or more purchasers. Let me know if you're interested and i'll be able to get more information etc.<ul><li><a href="http://www.stableenergies.com/prodinfo.asp?number=GBTT">TT Harness Bar</a></li></ul>

Default CG locks are a much easier and more economical solution

and they work very very well. they may not be as good as a full harness setup, but unless you're really at the track (or autocrossing) all the time, I bet they would be sufficient.

just throwing it out there...

Default Are you talking about the ones that go into the rear seat belts? Those are NOT installed

at the correct angles for the harness. The ones made for the other MKIV platforms shouldn't be used with the TT.

Default TT body flex, no rear seat, and the harness bar......

My wish list from Stable Energies would include a bar that doesn't have to accomodate for the rear seat that exited my car long ago, and something that's as quick release as possible. I throw my bike, luggage, etc. etc. in there and want to keep the cargo area as un-350Z like as possible.

However.....I've gotten 2-3 "dings" (or what looked like dings) above the rear wheels, somewhere near the roofline crease on both sides now, as a result of the body flexing in hard cornering or track situations. My paintless dent guy was very good and able to get them out so far (tough to get up in there sometimes), and he said he's seen these before in Mustangs and other cars with body flexing. Seems like the harness bar would provide at least some minimal flex control as well, I just need to be able to get it out relatively easily for loading purposes.

Haven't noticed others posting about this, so curious to hear if others get this as well.
