Everything JDM
I have bought from them, very honest, shipping is reasonable and
relatively fast, considering it comes from Japan.

 

Takata 4 pt harness $450 (kingmotorsports)
Schroth 6 pt harness $260

$450
- $260
--------
$190

that's a nice piece of change
that other $200 could buy HPS pads, Goodridge SS lines and ATE Super Blue fluid
now what do you think is a better deal

 

Takata belts all the way. I believe drealgsr in Japan has it in his car. IM him to get his comments.

 

Takata are waaaaay overpriced for what you get - probably why King dropped the line. Get Scroth, Stabelt or OMP.




OMP is what Michael Schumacher uses.

damn you people i want takata's too! they will blend so well... ohh i can already see it! hmmmmmm lets see... should i get another credit card lol!

 

i think jdmhondaparts still sells them

 

I thought our ITRs come with Takata belts..

 

Scroth

 

Takatas are excellent I would definatly buy another set

 

As already mentioned, those suckers are pretty expensive...

Alternatives have been mentioned:
Sparco, Schroth, Sabelt

I'd like to also bring up Stand21 and Simpson (for you NASCAR fans...)

All the above make nice 5 and 6 point systems...

Just be sure to mount them to the right hard points and route them the right way.

If you want a completely JDM look, go for it. If not, there are better stuffs out there and cost a lot less.

 

i dig the takatas too, too bad they dont come in other colours =/.. not too fond of the green.

 

you spelled it wrong

 

they just changed the buckle design..king should be selling them again by now..
yes all our cars come from the factory with takatas..hehehe

 

These are TAKATA belts in one of A&J's white EK..

 

hmm.. that just looks like the Takata Shoulder pad on the stock 3 point belt =/

 

very observant

 

Mmmm. . . Takata's. They are very sweet! Too bad they cost a fortune.

 

EP, I called King today and whoever answered the phone Just said that Mugen no longer distributes them. I remember you telling me about the buckle. didn't seem as thought the guy was too sure if Mugen would ever distribute them again.

 

 

Indeed... Not worth their premium. I'm sure they're good, but all you're paying for is the name.
