cobra seats?

[chmercer]

does anyone have any experience with cobra seats? i have the opportunity to get a new suzuka at a pretty good price, and my buddy club seat is pissing me off. ive read the measurments and all that, but i would still like to hear from somone whos sat in one, if possible.

here is the seat

i sat in one. seemed ok, pretty similar feeling to low-end sparco. didn't get to drive in it though.

don't have one for myself but just type in cobra seat in the search box....here's what i found:http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=30415&highlight=cobra+seat
from what i read about them they seem to be very good quality

thanks for the info

not from my own personal experience in my car, but in my friends talon he has been nothing but pleased with them

they're pretty good quality...comparable to low-mid range Sparco seats, fabric is quality, as well as the shell and design.....

definately better than POS Corbeaus

[chmercer]

hmm comparable to low mid sparcos? how about compared to pro2k or corsa

i went to Sube sports a while back to test fit these seats...and i must say they fit real nice, very supportive. its awsome. Top quality stuff here my friend.

dont take it that the low-mid range Sparcos are low quality, but its separable from the "racing" seats....Sparco=good stuff, a lil on the light/flimsy side.......but the Cobras being compared to the Sparcos is a good compliment

ive never understood this but...

when you buy some seats, do they come in pairs, and does the price they say on web pages quote the price for both of the seats?

[chmercer]

no, price = 1 seat. 2 racing seats = waste of money, because you only have one ass

I have a Cobra Imola II carbon kevlar bucket in my car, it's great I love it I can take long trips and still be comfy. You have to be somewhat small to fit in it nicely. My dad is about 6ft and like 190lbs and he can fit in it he just has to take his wallet out. Really nice high quality seat.

i have cobra daytonas...the 1st gen. theyre much bulker bulster, more expensive quality than the 2nd version...

i like em, i cant fit recaro or bride, im big eyetalian with a small waist :)

[chmercer]

sway500 how much do you weigh, what is your waiste size. im tall and skinny. i need a seat with similar proportions to a buddy club, but needs to have a higher back.

[nismo2491]

2 racing seats does not nescessarily equal waste of money.. if they are lightweight buckets you are shaving weight and for some racing classes you need both front seats... also in my old car with my cage the factory seat didn't fit so I had to get a racing seat.

I went down to a cobra distributor and sat in every freakin seat for at least 5 minutes each and HATED every single one short of the suzuka.
Cobra seats just feel like hiding naked in a burlap sack and comming out to yell surprise and have the sack scratch up your balls.

Get a Sparco for the money, unless that suzuka is going to cost a lot LESS then a Pro2000 or Evo.

I weigh 141 and I'm like 5'10" and it is absoulutely perfect for me. I made custom rails for it but I'm going to get the bride super lows sooner or later. I can fit in my car with a helmet and have like 3inches above my head.
