I've got a 4pt with a harness bar, it's an Autopower bolt in that's been slightly modified, makes me feel way safer though, and definately stiffens the car up. I'm gonna have a custom front section welded in within a couple months though....

Jhill's cage is really nice. You can see differences between the rules. In rally you must have 3" belts but it is also acceptable to tie in suspension points. You can clearly see in jhill's setup the suspension points are not tied. This would make the car handle far better at high speeds but obviously it's not permitted.

Also, you probably will want to have at least one passenger seat. This is one reason why I suggest going with an FIA rally style cage as it will protect both occupants and tying into the suspension points it will make the car handle better.
