Rear subframe/pin stay nut - M14x1.5 or is it?!

Hopefully a quick hive-mind question.
I've measured the 14mm rear subframe pin as a 1.5" thread pitch (standard M14 fine) but my lovely shiny titanium replacement nuts (cheaper than OEM from Torqen once you include shipping) do not fit after three or four threads. 

Not wanting to cross-thread I was wondering - does anyone know whether they are "non-standard" bolt thread and whether or not aftermarkets should fit? I could always use an M14 die but hestitant in-case pitch is "special".

The "correct" OEM subframe nut for the other side slips straight on which leads me to question my replacement nut thread pitch; none of my other "replaced" front nuts (replaced when swapped kidney brackets) seem to fit either?
