Re: Project Black ValentNine
What 4-points do you have? Unless they have some way to prevent submarining under the lap belts it's not the best way to go.

Re: Project Black ValentNine
What color? Maybe I should do a second set in this car.
By pair you mean one set of harnesses or two full harnesses (enough for one seat or two?)

Like spazzy said, I got a scroth rallye4 harness. It's got ASM tech on it, I did a bit of research and got Brandon/toothy's approval before pulling the trigger.

I kinda figured you would have researched it first. Just thought I'd ask.

Re: Project Black ValentNine
So, engine is all assembled, clutch and trans are all sauced up, and while cleaning out the stock IX turbo Ron discovered some excessive shaft play...bearings must have gotten killed with the motor which suuuux...I was really hoping to do STS on this car but oh well. Everything is ready to go back in but now this road block, ugh. I want this thing done really bad now!
I looked around at options...rebuilding this turbo into an ef3 was my first choice but MAP is a few weeks out (it is spring after all). I found a few stock turbos nationally but nothing I could pull the trigger on quickly. So I decided to scoop up a local FP white...it's local, mint (3k miles), comes with a few extras I may need and the price was right.
So close....

Re: Project Black ValentNine
You're going to love this setup. You cannot go wrong with the hd's, turbo tuff's, and the exedy twin. Spring is the perfect time to finish a project. Hey I might be tempted to join you in the turn style racing, give me a heads up when you plan on starting.
