Do a search. There are many threads on this subject. The short answer is that this car is unsafe with harnesses and no rollbar. I've been using a CG lock at the track to tighten and lock the lap belt. Good luck.
Harnesses hooked up to the ASM harness bracket will compress your spine in an accident, as will anything that isn't mounted basically parallel with your shoulders.
If it's safety you're after, hook yourself up with a rollbar AND a 5 or 6 pt. harness.
Due to popular demand, though, the Go Fast Lab may soon be selling driving jackets silkscreened with Takata harnesses graphics that make it APPEAR that the driver is wearing a true 4 point system. Ultra JDM right there, yo!
"ASM towel rack 50,000 yen. I guess there is no Home Depot in Milano eh?"
The angle from the eyebolt to the seat is too great. In a roll that would cause you to compress your spine. The 4 point is also a bad idea, since you would anti-submarine from having nothing to hold your jewels in place.
Go with a minimum of a 4 point roll bar and a 5 or 6 point harness and a race seat. You don't have to get german parts though. Momo and Sabelt work nicely too

i wrote without harnesses bar not without roll bar...
i think someone could have a rollbar without harness bar...
Technically yes, but if you are going to the trouble of a roll bar, it is safer with an integrated rollbar. I guess its all personal preference, some people cannot live without the convertible aspect. Others could careless for it.

with only the hardtop and a 4point harness is secure?
