The Sabelt Silver Porsche 997 6 Point GT Harness, part number 2100165, is a clip-in 6-point competition harness approved to FIA 8853-2016. Shoulder and lap webbing are 2 inch. HANS specific. Available in black, blue and red.
Specific to the Porsche 997 generation GT cars: 997 GT3, GT3 Cup, GT3 RS and GT3 R. These cars have defined rear harness mounting geometry from the factory roll cage or cage preparation; this harness is configured to hit the correct shoulder strap angles at those anchor points. A universal-fit saloon harness adapted to the 997 will not land at the correct angles by default.
Silver series hardware and 2×2 webbing make this suitable for both sprint and endurance events where the 997 is used in competition. HANS specific means the shoulder geometry is set for HANS device use, which is mandatory in the series where these cars typically compete.
Clip-in installation threads around the rear cage bars in the 997.
For 997 endurance use with an aircraft buckle and HANS friendly designation, the Silver Enduro 997 GT3 (2100167, £388) is the companion harness at £1 less. The Ultralight Porsche 997 6 Point Endurance (SABCFCI2197-A, £340) is available with Ultralight webbing and aircraft buckle if weight reduction is the priority.

How long does an FIA harness last?
Every FIA harness carries a not-valid-after date on its label, and that date is what the scrutineer checks, not the purchase date. Our guide on how long FIA harnesses last explains the labelling and when replacement is due, and buying new gets you the freshest date the maker currently produces.
What does the strap width mean for me?
This is a 2 inch shoulder to 2 inch lap harness. The shoulder width choice interacts with whether you run a HANS device, and our guide on 3 inch versus 2 inch harnesses explains which to pick and why.
Do I need a HANS-specific harness?
Yes, and this is the right type: a 6-point FIA harness with the HANS-specific shoulder cut, made to sit correctly over the device. Only 6-point FIA harnesses work with a HANS device, so this belt qualifies on both counts.
What does it mount to?
A harness needs proper anchor points: a harness bar, cage, or the car’s designed mounting points, plus a seat with the right slots, and as a 6-point it needs each point anchored correctly. Tell us the car and seat and we will confirm the mounting plan before you order.
