Carbon Kevlar And Carbon Fibre Bride Gias Replicas


Recommended Posts

1. Start and end date for the group buy. A maximum run time of 3 months is imposed - No more never ending group buys!

Start date is today (21/11/12) and end date is one month from now, 21/12/12.

2. Clear details of the product/s on offer

I contacted a supplier and got a fantastic deal in my opinion on 6 pairs (no more, no less) of Bride Lowmax Gias II replica bucket seats. Any more, and they won't fit on a standard carton so I'm going to limit this GB to 6 pairs (12 pieces).

Seats are available in black, blue or red material. Also, the center can be either all black or Bride gradiation material. The rears and base comes in either carbon fibre or carbon kevlar (same price).

3. The Group Buy price being offered, and the normal RRP

Genuine GIAS in kevlar go for $3600 a pair. RRP of these on eBay is around $1200+shipping for a pair, but I managed to lock 6 pairs (so 12 pieces) in at $700/pair shipped to WA + whatever customs duties we have to pay. The supplier has agreed to lower the declared value.

4. The company that is supplying the products for the group buy

gzkstar - website is http://www.gzkstar.com/

Collection available from 6148, WA.

I take it no ADR approval? Any idea on the structural integrity of these things? Just had a copy Sparco seat fail on me after about a year which I'm looking to replace at the moment, don't really want the same thing to happen again.

No Brides have ADR approval unfortunately mate, genuine or otherwise. A few members on here are currently running these seats and I'm only running this group buy off the positive feedback these seats have received. :)

These same seats were offered in a group buy recently for $850. At $700, I feel its a steal if we can get 6 people on board!

Fair enough. Are these the ones from the group buy about a year ago, coming from Carbontec (or similar) in China?

*EDIT* Herp a derp. I'll read the 1st post a little better shall I? :P

As far as I'm aware, you can buy rails from Supercheap or Autopro for around $100, or genuine Bride rails will fit these as well.

only this model? got ergo leather maybe? :no:

Only this model for this group buy unfortunately :(

Edited by PewPew

These should come as they usually do come with it.

Lots of people buy these here in Dubai, and general perception is the ones coming from Taiwan are of really good quality then China,

Because I'm a deadset retard, are the rails that can be purchased from Supercheap etc the ONLY additional purchases that would be needed in order to fit these seats to a standard R33? So nothing needs to be modified and additionally purchased to bolt in.

As far as I'm aware, yes. 5 spots filled, 1 last buyer needed to get this group buy into action!!

What sort of rails do these use? Side or bottom mount?

yes you can buy the universal rails but IMO dont! they do not include sliders and will need universal sliders and make the seat sit too high!!!

spend the cash and buy the SL bride rails that these were designed for to get them sitting right in the car otherwise the front will be extremely high and causes leg cramps

Sorry, havn't been online for a while. In the end I got the numbers, but the supplier decided last minute to jack up the prices - very unprofessional. So I won't be going through with the order. Sorry for any inconvenience.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
