@Tcoat you are right US tS is probably the correct term.
The part numbers in the links that Norcal provided will be the STi springs to go with the dampeners.

In the US, the Ts springs are black.

But I have a sneaking suspicion that they are pink overseas.

Also people should never order directly from parts.subaru.com. Always google the part number and you will find distributors up to 40% below msrp. Subarupartsdepot.com, subaruparts.com are examples.

I asked the same on tS thread and took answers they are pink as in the link I posted above, JDM ones are pink.
Anyway a friend sent me a chassis number and confirmed what part.subaru.com mentions, of course I am not going to buy them directly from them, they are recently available in Europe where I buy at wholesale prices.
Thanks all for your answers, the correct part numbers in case someone is interested:

Front shock left (Sachs) 20310CA250
Front shock right (Sachs) 20310CA240
Rear struts (Sachs) 20365CA220
Coil springs front 20330CA260
Coil springs rear 20380CA270

Thanks for compiling that. So do you think the springs you are going to order are going to be pink or black?

US BRZ tS springs are most certainly pink:

Also, while snapping the pic, I can confirm the front left shock is: 20310CA250

Nice. That’s why I ask these questions because some of the STi stuff is hard to figure out.

Now for my next question, are these the same springs as B2010CA000 which is sold as a set of 4? These are the ones that lower the car “10mm”.

https://www.subarupartspros.com/sku-...SABEgLBjfD_BwE

I never noticed a ride height difference between the PP package BRZ and the Ts, but that could be because it’s literally only 10mm.

That I’m not sure of.

But the tS comes with 18x7.5in wheels wrapped in 215/40/18/ while the PP comes with 17x7.5 in 215/45/17. That might be enough to screen with the eyes a bit.

You would think they would be exclusive, but then they would have likely been something called out as exclusive to the tS like the flexible v-bars and draw stiffeners

That was also my question but US tS springs are harder 15% front 8% rear compared with basic model while B2010CA000 are only about 8% front (I don't know by how much rear), tS are two different part numbers for front and rear while the above pinks are one for the set.
Plus the tS have the classic color dots that Subaru - depending of hardness - marks it's springs with, while the US pinks haven't.
Only if/when I order them I can tell you for sure!

Just found a video that confirms tS has pink springs with dots that look different from the B2010CA000:

20330CA260 x2 (coil spring front)

Bilstein B6, Bilstein B8, Bilstein JDM STI BRZ Stuts (the silver ones)

JDM STI BRZ Pink Spings

All the above seems like it would be easier more cut and dry as to what the final product your purchasing actually is.

Also if you need a Ts vin number just look them up on used car sites like autotrader, car guru or true car. Every dealership lists a used cars vin number. Contact a dealership for parts with whatever vin number you find.

Lastly I think the US frs/86 trd springs which are made by eibach which is in Southern California would technically fall under the designation of a “USDM” Part Or Spec lol. So I believe there is a novel asterisk to place in your “USImport” argument señor Tcoat.

So is my set of 4 tS shocks and springs worth selling? 400 miles on them.
