Hello,

Looking for this specific seat or something along these lines. Do you know of anything similar?

Ideally not cobra classics.

Want it to be abit different with a link to classic rally/race without impairing on comfort and usability. These Nurburgring seats seem to be only sold/made in the states and work out to be about £580 each seat :P (nevermind shipping >_< )

I need the option for them to be used with standard seat belts for the time being, but have the ability to be used with harnesses in the future. Headrest is preferable.


Any ideas?


Cheers.

Very nice though

Yeah, Thanks for your responses.

Also if anyone has any pictures/comments about the speedwell seats either the mini-spares repro's or original ones.

Cheers

Yeah already had the link cheers. I would if they have headrests too! Wouldn't have the fabric version though. Would adding a headrest from another seat to these be murder? :P Not sure of the inside construction of this seat.

My idea too!

I like the fact that the actual seat is fabric, I am tired of sweating in my leather seats.

I also thought about buying a standard cub and having it re-trimmed. Any idea of cost?

Check out this website:
www.BF-Torino.de

Those Nürburgring seats are made by BF Torino. Check the modell "NÜRBURGRING B12", the second one on the linked page. Although the ID is a different one, it looks absolutely the same as the one on your pictures.

The prices list states €298 for the type having fabric on the seat face and vinyl on the outer face ("B12 Kunstleder schwarz / Sitzfläche genoppt 298,-").

Is that what you're looking for?

Cheers MichaelH. I did find that website and an other one where i got those pictures from. Couldn't work out the prices as my german isn't as good as it used be! Haha.

I am thinking of fitting headrests to speedwell seats :thumbsup: - not sure whether this will be possible or not - need to phone a few re-trim places to see whether it is possible. Does anyone know if it has been done before? The headrests would have to be in keeping with the style of the seats. More research required!

How about this. Its a OMP classic seat.
Ears motorsport in Ieland sell them but I think demon tweaks or someone in the UK do as well
