Has anyone made any progress in getting a six-point harness installed in their GT? Or at least any information on who may have done this for someone?

 

I was looking into doing a harness setup in one a few days ago, but I am leaning towards 5 point. Porsche uses a five point system in their race equipped GT's and I have to assume there is a good reason why (easier, less modification?) Marc

 

Are you doing this in a GT or other car?

 

porsche has race equipped GT's

 

I talked with Porsche North America, and they will not sell and/or install any racing gear in the GT. Even though it has seats ready for a harness, it has to be done by a third party vendor.

I'm just looking for someone with experience doing a GT without poking holes into the carbon fiber.

 

I know some race shops will make a bar that goes under the seat and attaches to the seat's front mounting bolts, that might be an option for the crotch strap(s). Also, ask some of the porsche aftermarket companies (Ruf, Techart, etc...) They could have more ideas.

Edit: For instance, here's a sub strap mount for a boxter and 996. Haven't found one for a CGT yet. website

 

should'nt matter on the install whether it's a 5 pt or 6 point. The both will need a sub bar under the seat. Go with a 6pt. Your nuts will thank you.

 

have you talked to the guys at GMG? I know they maintain a few GT's and probably could complete this project for ya

 

Yes... I am sure that GMG can take care of all your performance/safety needs...

I was thinking about it for my GT also, but I never got around to doing it.
