[fromthelbc]

i approve of everything happening in this thread.

[600whp s4]

just make some custom Aero ii or aero i's in 18" and this will be the sickest 43 ever! and a E55 swap would be cool i have a 28k mile e55 motor from when i was going to swap my c43

Holy crap that looks good.

thanks dude !

You know im MB biased! the stance looks awesome dude! Time to cut out those secondaries, resonator, and straighten out the axle back.

PS - MBH gots a deal on long tubes right now - should be a direct bolt on AND transferable to your the 55 motor when ya do the swap :P

I cant do any long tube header or even get my secondaries deleted. The exhaust shop i go to said no way. I do need to straighten out those tips. got the car with a busted hanger. I would like to delete the secondaries and resonator. but since So cal is super strict on smog i wont tamper with it this time. My last car had after market cats and straight pipe and couldnt pass visual inspection. I plan to ditch the resonator. and possibly muffler.

make that rear tucked rims!

you already know im workin on it. gonna try and set up a photoshoot for her once that has happened also. need some legit shots of it .

Love that front bar man, classy as, reminds me of the wald w140 s600 which is my favorite benz of all time. What's the details on the motor in these?

the C 43 AMG powered by a 4.3L V8, which could now achieve 306 hp at 5850 rpm, with a torque of 410 N·m (302 lb·ft) at 3250 rpm. Unlike the C36, which was in fact a "ready-to-sell" C280 disassembled for tuning at the AMG factory, the C43 was the first AMG car to be completely assembled at the AMG plant in Affalterbach after the acquisition of AMG by Daimler-Benz in 1998. The C43 AMG can achieve a 0–100 km/h (0-60 mph) time in 5.7 seconds for the saloon version and 5.9 seconds for the estate. The C43 was the first C-Class to be equipped with a Mercedes-Benz V8 based engine.
There were only 4,200 units total, produced between 1998-2000 and 1,200 were imported to North America.

so beautiful!!!

thank you sir !

this is nice

it is nice having a little bit of power there for a change.

Its good to learn from mistakes, but to keep making those mistakes is foolish

exactly, I saw no reason in doing so again.

dude... this c43 is probably my favorite 202 of all time. I actually never liked w202s until I saw your white one! lol. glad to see everything went well with the swap from the other one!

lol youre not the first person that has told me this haha! a lot of people seemed to not like the W202 for some reason maybe because it was the "mini benz"

I wouldn't mess with the fitment.

I must say I loved your white one ... but this one is so much better.
Classier and the fitment is spot on. Plus, it's an AMG.
dat sound

But, either way ... looks great.

Do your thing.

yes i love the sound but i already want more. Power that is. The 55 swap is on my mine 24/7 supposedly the 2002 e55 AMG motor is direct bolt in plug and play swap for this car.

Holy moly, that's gorgeous...

thanks dude !

I swear is was tripping when i saw this thing today... I saw a 202 on white lorinsers and distinct plates looking good and thought you got it resprayed with a 4.3 heart transplant... funny that i come on stance|works and see this page first,
Congrats david.

yours eyes are not playing tricks on you lol do not be alarmed it is not the same car. I wish i could have had the resources available to do a 43 swap to the 280 but its not even possible. best bet now would be to swap a E55 engine into this car. its easier and all the running gear & trans can take the power much easier than the older 4 speed in the C280. Thanks for the pic man ! sucked to be parked way in the back i feel like no one came back there to see the rides. Heres a shot from the front that i found on instagram.
