safety questions
I posted this on the GT3 Forum but got little response. I have a new to me 08 GT3. It has the club sport seats and the rear roll bar. I am looking for advice on what brand and specs to buy for the following. I will do 3-4 HPDE's a year.

- sub bars for the front 2 belts
- 6 point belts (2" or 3")
- Hans device.

You can also try posting in the Racing and DE forum. Club sport seats means the folding back bucket seats with harness cutouts correct? Sometimes also called Sport Bucket seats. I have these in a Cayman. For the substrap bar I went with the Cantrell motorsport part. I also got Cantrell side mounts to allow me to lower/tilt the seat slightly which I needed due to height. For 6 point belts, Schroth make a specific harness for the Porsche seats. The lap belts have sewn in eyelets that mount to the seats and allow you to maintain the 3 point belts. There are a wide range of HNR devices now. I have an older Hans sport and a Simpson hybrid. The hans works better for me in the sport bucket seats as the hybrid rubs a bit. Have heard the Schroth flex is good. Hope that helps

For HANS, just about any brand will work, you should check whatever groups you will drive with and see what they require, regarding FIA or other certifications. For my limited track days I just went cheap and got a HANS from the Zamp company.
