I have a corbeau 4 point harness but I heard you could mount it on the rear strut bar without having to buy a harness bar?

If I'm reading this right, I'm guessing you want to wrap your shoulder harnesses around the rear strut bar of the Z. If that's what you're describing, then I'd say it's a big no-no. I won't elaborate on it until you confirm that it's indeed what you're asking about.

bad idea on mounting harnesses on the rear strut tower. for low speed events without risk of rollover, use a harness bar. if you plan on circuit racing, i would advise a roll bar at minimum and mount the harnesses to the roll bar.

personally i don't like to use 4-pt harnesses without an anti-submarine strap.

are you running stock seats or aftermarket with harness pass through?
