Review: Cobra Nogaro seats (uniquely street friendly fixed back bucket seat)

[Cronenberged]

Thanks for the info! Between these and Recaro PP ABE. The Recaros would end up being cheaper all said and done. Are Cobra Nogaros worth a few hundred more for a street/track mixed usage car?

You get a lot more customizability. I'm not aware that the PP can be made to order. I had my seat built with extra cushioning, not just some extra pad you stick anywhere on the seat.

HMS is the sole US importer— everyone else selling them in the USA is buying them from hms.

Where is the cheapest place to get these if I just want regular black ones?

HMS Motorsports, have to call them to get all the extras as you are limited on their website.

Back on topic…. Who is the place to buy these from if I want to get these in Imola leather?

Haven’t done it, but, I’m interested in hearing your reasoning. So far based on your responses, you’re trolling.

That’s literally all he does on this forum haha, definitely not the first time I’ve seem him troll/get in arguments. I usually just ignore it and don’t say anything, but I genuinely don’t understand why he thinks putting heating elements in racing seats is “comical”. If he lived anywhere other than Cali he would most definitely do the same. I know I plan on doing it in my car. My car only see’s nice weather, but the weather get’s decently chilly here in the fall. I also just don’t like when buttons/controls don’t work in my car.

Haha, not sure why the four guys who have done this are trying to convince me it's not funny to me. You guys are free to do as you wish not sure why you care about my opinion so much.

It's still funny, now carry on.

I just implied it was a comical concept which it is. Are you still mad about the other thread and felt the need to come in here and get your two cents in opposing me?

Do explain yourself..

Meanwhile most CA people wear hoodies when it's 70 degrees out. I don't understand his thought process either. but maybe we should stop feeding him

[Obioban]

I guess that’s really the question: are seat heaters funny in stock seats? It not, why are they not there but are in bucket seats? Are cars that come with heated bucket seats stock funny?

Why is it comical? It’s not like it’s hard to put heating pads in. Adding heating element doesn’t add any considerable amount of weight or anything. The real question is why wouldn’t you put heating pads in your street/track toy? It’s inexpensive, keeps oem creature comforts, and is just nice to have. I guess heated seats in general are comical when you live in Cali...

[Obioban]

Yes, southern.



Have you considered getting a heated wheel and gloves also? Heated jacket perhaps?

I do have gloves and a jacket.

Perhaps you're not actually familiar with what cold is, being that you live in southern CA.

Outside of tracking, sometimes when I drive my car to work it's 20º outside. Not sure why you think it's silly to want to be more comfortable.

I have no idea what you are talking about. The behavior and trolling gets more and more bizarre …
