Enjoying the Track....

looks like you are having fun. have you considered a half cage to go with the harnesses? Especially on a track like Laguna and a fast car the whole system makes sense for safety. Without the cage I would just use the 3 point belts.

Thought about a half cage but don't like the idea of drilling or welding. But as I do more to the car and for safety it might be the way to go. Are there any half cages that use the original bolts of the seat belts?
So you would rather have an original seat belt 3 point than using a bar for a 5 point?

I think there are bars that do not require drilling. Yes I would use the 3 point so that in the unlikely event of a rollover you can bend over. If you don;t have the cage, your head and spine will be supporting the weight of the car.
To DocPorsche; your gt3 is probably better for track duty, but the 993 turbo is great to enjoy on the track although it may hurt value. There is a guy on here in Australia that converted his turboS to track car. Life is short enjoy it while you can and you can't take anything with you except memories

DAS sport RB4SR is the highest quality bolt in roll bar for the price. I got mine bare and had it powder coated for about a hundred bucks. Very easy to install and completely reversible if you need to remove it. Even found a pretty big improvement to cabin rigidity. No drilling, uses existing seatbelt mounts.
