New Cobra Race seat install

I just got finished installing my Cobra Suzuka race seat, Schroth 6 point harness and GMG GT rollbar. I think it came out really good. Comfortable and really feels like I'm connected to the car. It was a fun time mounting the harness.

Nice seats!!!

I sat in the GTs at Sube Sports and they fit me awesome. I will be getting some in the near future for me M3.

How was the install? Did it happen to give you more 'helmet' room? I know that is one issue in the E36 M3 (helmet room).

The install was ok. Took a bit of muscle to get the mounts onto the stock location because of the 'spring' in the CF shell but the fit is good. I actually added another set of holes in the rear of the side mounts to get the seat lower. Head room is ok. With the bottom seat cushion out, there is plenty of head room and the ride is not that tough without the cushion but that could be from my fat *** also

About $750 for the standard fitmet. A little more for the wider one. Talk to Chad at Sube Sports. Great guy.

Talk to Chad. Tell him you are from 6Speedonline. I'm trying to get him to be a sponsor or at least get the place visible more on 6Speedonline. They are good people.
