Hey whats up i have no idea where else to post this. Is it safe to put harness's on Rsx seats (through the hole) I honestly dont think it is but im not sure.... Thanks

If you're referring to a Schroth 3 or 4-point, then yes--they will work fine in the RSX.

But they are really only for autox. Don't use for daily driving or for an HPDE.

what about a takta set up?

Todd00

Why do you need $400 Takata's on stock seats? They aren't safe for daily driving in an OEM seat.

just a question. thanks for the info

Just an FYI. OEM seats and seatbelts are designed to let your head/upper torso 'slide' down in the case of a rollover, severe side hit, etc.

A harness is designed to hold everything upright, even in the case of an upside-down car. However, in a street car without a cage, and upside down car is often one that has its top crushed (not so with a rollcage). So your head will then be crushed.

Harness for street driving =

Use OEM belts.

How do harnesses not let you slide down?

Assuming a 3 or 4 point harness, wouldnt you still be able to slide out of your seat, thats why they make that crotch harness to keep you from sliding under the steering column right?

Purely thinking of the top of my head.

if you use a harness correctly, it'll hold you tightly against the seat. thus, no room to slide down.

i have takata's in my oem seats hahaha

NTCustoms

let us know how they are when you crash, unless you are talking about the OEM takatas

Exactly what he told his elementary teachers while they tried teaching him about sentence fragments and run ons.

maybe i should post a better explanation for this question.... i have a Teg and i got rsx seats in the trade which were fabbed to fit.... I plan on tracking my car and just wanted if there will be any use for these or if i should get a set of recaros or alike seats.... thanks for the answers.... like i said in the original post i didnt think it was possible/safe

NTCustoms

IMO RSX seats suck for the track if they are leather. they don't hold for **** and you slide everywhere. there would be no reason for it not to be safe, i just wouldn't want the shoulder straps to be cutting into my neck.

^ for sure. I need some Recaros and some harnesses badly. I slip all over my damn car when i corner fast.
