This is awesome. Props for having an idea and getting it done rather then just talking about it forever.

Trying to make new brakes fit wheels.. well this pic might tell how they fit..

[Exami]

Fast tour around this merc new wheels hopefully next week!

[Exami]

Hah that is wicked! How do you find out stuff like using a honda speed sensor? I plan on a Volvo T5 engine into a porsche 944 eventually

Its MB's own abs sensor, but i used the Dakota Digital SGI-5 to run Honda Speedo..

ouch on the caliper, that should be an easy fix though....ah the love of old cars...

Just got some news the calipers are to be fixed, costs about 20€ / caliper (26$)..


On weekend im hopefully im going todo some floor welding... get rid of some rust..

Also i finally got the speedo working today (swapped Honda Civic electronit speedo over the wiredriven oem..)

when you did you 4-pot caliper upgrade, did you have to swap out the brake rotor to the w124 or were you able to use the stock 190 rotors?

I did the whole set if you look the previous pages you'll see what parts i swapped.. and the front brake parts is straight out from W124 300-24V and bolted into W201 only thing was the abs sensor that did not fit..
