Sparco harness sale

I know nothing about the company offering except they're blowing em out. Thought this was a better place to post than the for sale section.

OG racing is a great place....I go there occasionally (about 20 minutes from me) to pick up fluids (redline, ATE blue, etc), but they speciallize in racing equipment. All the guys who work there are hardcore auto-x/road course guys and really know their stuff....they are also very friendly and love to talk about racing (track, not street). Their showroom is pretty small, jam=packed with helmets, seats, harnesses, etc...

It's in no way a "import tuner" shop as much as it's a true racing-oriented shop.....

also they have good prices on alot of things IMO

Not to be the rain on the parade, but I read a post in a subaru forum that basically said dont use a 4 or 5 point unless you have a roll cage. Apparently if you flip the car and crush the roof, the 4-pt will prevent you from doing what comes naturally- ducking your head. And apparently people have died..

BTW I have an unused 4-pt "nismo" (knockoff) 4 pt that I havent used if anyone wants it for cheap...

That's correct. Never wear a harness for extended periods of time w/o a bar or cage. Besides it's a PITA to reach anything.
