    FS: Turner JS Shocks and Springs

    Selling a portion of the popular Turner Motorsport “J-Stock” suspension kit often used for JS E30 BMW M3’s in BMW CCA as well as crossed over into KP BMW CCA Prepped cars. The upgrades to this over the sport kit is that the shocks are revalved Bilstiens and the springs have a special custom Tuner progressive rate. I ran this suspension for 2 years in local SCCA type racing in an 89 325is but have also used the same suspension on a street driven E30 M3 for over 8 years with no issues. I am keeping the rest of the turner kit including sway bars, reinforcements, camber plates etc. The shocks and springs were in this particular car for approx 10 track events but show no signs of abnormal wear. The whole kit retails for over $2,000 and for the springs and shocks I am looking for $425 shipped OBO. Thanks for looking.

        Why are the rear shocks not inverted? Are these revalved sports or actual J Stock Bilsteins?

          Nice catch. The front part numbers show as Sports. No hits on the rear #'s.

            Edit: Looks like the inverted was an option..

            " A TMS exclusive, These "evo" shocks will work with existing JS suspensions and will provide more travel than our previous versions - optimizing grip when used on a rough track surface (under load) . They are also an "Inverted" design that eliminate some unsprung weight. "

              Still a heck of a deal is those are actually valved for the springs.

                What are the rates specifically?

                From the references on the forum they're supposed to 680 and 1026, front/rear respectively. You ever drive this on the street?

                  I have this setup on my M3 and its....interesting on the street. I also have the 25/22 sways so I'm sure that also accounts for a bit of the rough ride. I don't think I'd want to pair this combo with something bigger than a 16" rim if you wanted any sort of ride comfort.

                        Street is a bit bumpy but a nice compromise for performance

                              Early shocks I believe were not inverted.

                              I have this set up in two of my cars and like it as well.

                              Glad it sold.
