Hey Guys,

A while back I bought a set of coilovers from a forum member and they appear to be the wrong ones for my car!

I was told they were Tein Super Streets to suit a R33 Gts-t. But once in, the fronts are too low and the rears are too high, on ALL levels of adjustment.

The Part Numbers are as follows...

Front: QEN68-Z1531

BCNR33-F

Rear: QEN69-Z1531

BCNR33-R

Now I know what your thinking, the BCNR33 bit defines them as GTR suspension.. which the seller obv knew as he cut off the part numbers in his pics... grrr.

But they actually have the rings at the bottom of the fronts and backs, instead of the square bracket piece GTR's use! And they fit on to my Gts-t no dramas at all.

So whats going on? Does anyone have any ideas?

WA suspensions, my local retailer of Tein, had no idea and couldn't even find those part numbers in their books!

Hope someone can help me identify these because if they are not the right ones for my car I would like to sell them! As the right thing though!

Cheers Guys,

Dragonforce

I dont know what car they suit, but theyre not for ECR33. My Tein SS part numbers are QEN64-Z1531-L (and) R for the fronts, and QEN65-Z1531 for the rears. They also say ECR33 on them.

Contact Fulcrum. They should be able to sort out those part numbers for you.

Ok guys,

Spoke to Fulcrum, awesome guys very willing to help!

Turns out they are indeed super streets for the R33 GTR and NOT for a gts-t. But someone has had them modified from the stirrup bottoms to eyes so they will fir in the gts-t. why someone would do this i dont know! apparently the gts-4 also uses the stirrup so its not to suit one of those either. I think im going to send them back to fulcrum and see if they can be modified back to GTR spec as they are in great condition and useless as they are...

Cheers for ur thoughts!

    • Yeah I'm keeping an eye on it and might take it out as a once off if this doesn't fully charge. I did some research that said it's normal in equalisation charging. Voltage I thought was 20+ (faulty battery in multimeter) but now its on 15.9v, the max it should go to is 16.2v as per the manual. I'll provide an update once hopefully it's actually fully charged and in float mode. Waiting for it to go to 16.2v and not higher and see what happens. What I suspect has happened is that even though it's not an old battery, I did leave the car turned off for almost 4 weeks at one point then left it off for another 2 weeks which might have erroded the battery and is taking a long time to do this equlisation charge.
    • I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Just had a look at yours, certainly looking for a reclinable version. The Brides don't look too bad! I would still like to sit in one just to make sure it's what I'm after.    Thanks for the replies fellas. 
    • I bought my Bride reps from Crank Motorsport. He is, um, a trifle disorganised. I would have to look back at the e-mails to make sure I got it right, but I think he sent me normal fabric ones when I ordered the "Alcantara" ones. So he had to pay for shipping 3x and I'm sure that f**ked him off big time. And asking technical questions where nuanced English is required is a no go. It's simple English only. And....should I have bought the Alcantara ones? Well, as it turns out, they are great, feel great, etc, but the fabris wore through on the point of the waist bolster in <2 years. Must have caught a rip from a rivet on jeans or shorts, or something like that. So now I have to patch it somehow. A bit shit. My fault, ultimately, because it is Chinesium Faux Alcantara, not the real thing, and it turns ot that it has the tear resistance of a soggy tissue. But the seats and the reails are great. I probably should have gotten the R34 style ones, and now that they price is up in that ridiculous sort of number, I could have sold them for a profit!
    • Another recco is to just let it rest for a while and go back and reconnect later.
    • keep an extinguisher nearby? or even better, take it out of the car to charge?
