in need of a new seat
Turbo Mini Forums

i cant decide between a cobra susuka pro gt and a corbeau pro series excel.

need a larger one as im 6,3 and nearly 18 stone.

anyone got these or any other opinions and options

i've just dipped back under 18st and can't fault my cobra monaco, i was surprised i could fit my arse into it. i'm only 5'10 but you can mount it wherever you want to really if legroom an issue.

ive got monaco now. nice seat just after a shell seat as an upgrade and wanted side mounted.

well us being 18 stone. thats how we can make our cars go faster. diet lol

How soon do you need something , i might have a cobra imola 2 for sale in the next few weeks

no rush but i do need gt size or excel in corbeau as i found out getting stuck in a seat at autosport allthough i have a friend after imolas

anyone. what shell seats do people use :)

ive got suzukas in my car, but they are quite tight due to the high sides.
They used to do a wide version, im not sure if this is now the GT, but the ears of the seat are very tight in the car so you would need to double check the widths again std

amazing seat though

yer i think im going to get a susuka gt width. should be ok as i will have it paractically behind the cross beem as im just over 6,3 with long legs.

then ill have a monaco in the passenger seat when im on the road jsut further forwar so the wings dont hit

but you reconmend the susuka so that ticks one next to that.

the corbeau pro series looks very similar and its a little lighter and im sure its the one i tried out at autosport that i loved but cant remeber :(

I have a pair of carbon fibre corbeau revolutions which are pretty much a pro series with wrap around wings added.I needed the excel width as the standard width in corbeau is really tight - seems a bit tighter than standard cobra.

Cheers Ross.

i think im going for an excel revolution im jsut a little worried about getting it in the mini lol

right ive ordered a excel corbeau revoltion in black :) should be here this week sometime :)
