I personally like Willans or Schroth but, to each their own. Takata's are the japanese car default harness.

well . the good thing about takatas is that they hold up their value and theyre universal . so its easy to sell to any make and model if you decide not to keep it . Ebay is your friend .

just some interesting facts about their stuff:


Specializes in air holding, heat sealable, and polyurethane coated and laminated fabrics.
U.S. Coast Guard approved fabrics for life rafts and inflatable life jackets. EN 396 approved life jacket fabric for European market. U.S. Navy approved fabrics for military rafts

Takata is also the largest OE supplier of seatbelts and airbags to the Japanese manufacturers. You are talking a HUGE global company that manufacturers everything from front and side airbags to the clocksprings on a steering wheel, and steering wheels themselves.

The harnesses also meet all FIA 8853 and 8854 standards.

And yes, I've run 10's in one of my cars, with Takata's, and have never had an issue at the track...have also run numerous track days with them as well in a different car, and in several customer cars
