I'm debating selling these so thought I would advertise - if I can get somewhere in the region of what I paid I'd be happy to let it go to someone who will get some use out of them, it's likely these will be used very infrequently (track days 1-2 x a year for me). I knew I was taking a bit of a gamble with these are they are the stiffest spring you can get for the E30. It's not unbearable for road use, but it's very very firm (twice as firm as H&R Race's), and I figured for my usage of the car something softer makes sense.

1x Full set of Turner J Stock Springs
1x Front Set of Turner J Stock Bilstein dampers
1x Rear Set of Bilstein Group N Motorsport dampers (in a perfect world, you'd probably want these revalved - more info here: https://s14net.vbulletin.net/forum/s14/ ... ost1288542)

Spring rates are 680 lb/in front and 1026 rear (http://www.e30performance.info/viewtopi ... =23&t=1357)

The front spring is not captive - you would need to manually shift it onto the spring perch while lowering. I didn't know this going in, and wish I had, but would rather be transparent about it now. It's not the end of the world but a bit of a faff

I haven't got them on track yet (but am this Monday) - the handling is very very good and very neutral. It's pretty compliant on smooth roads, but country roads it's firm.

I am happy to get more pics once they are out the car, or give more details to the best of my ability.

Price - open to offers, but I paid:

Fronts springs and shocks - $747 + shipping + tax
Rears - 360 quid roughly

so 1,182 quid approximately. Maybe not my finest decision but hey ho.

I'd take 900 but unsure of the appetite out there - if you have a track car only I'd say it's a pretty good option, but likely wouldn't use em on UK roads.

Cheers,
Gus

Bump - flexible on price.

I'll start threads when ready, but I will likely have some other bits and pieces to sell coming up:

- H&R Race Springs (From the US)
- Eibach Sway bars
- M20 5 Speed Box
- Massive Rallye Kit for Willwood (adapters + bells for front and rear + handbrake rings)

Is the gearbox from the 2 or 2.5l?

The eBay ad I bought it from said 2/2.5L so I am not sure - but I think they are the same in any case?
