2JZ fit in my 04 C230K?
I want a 600 hp c class. I figure a 2jz with a T67 turbo will hit that hp mark easily if not more... so will it fit without extending the front end? If not any ideas on what performance engine will and of yall know a shop in Texas that will do it.... I'm really going to do it so need my fellow mb lovers help.

Well if you are truly serious you are going to need someone amazing with star as well as a plan to trick the cars systems into working with no engine (I assume you can somehow spoof that) Then on top of that major amounts of custom work and time to figure out the many many issues you would run into. Curious why you want to put so much money into such an old car? Better off getting a c55 and going from there. Would probably be way cheaper in the end too as custom work that you would need would cost a fortune.
All that said if you are serious about this and have deep pockets go for it as it would be a cool car in the end

Car is paid off and figure why not. I love the body style of my car and it would be a bada$$ sleeper ;-) I already have connections to the 2JZ motors..

I drive a Toyota Hybrid...
why not trade the C class for a Fiat 500 and put a Lambo V12 in the trunk

How much horsepower could I achieve out of it and do you think it would be easier? I called mwhouston.com because they installed an e55 in the c class but the owner said it was his own personal car they did it on. He said he would not do another because he wanted to be the only one. He told me he would sell me the car for 30k If I wanted it ( I turned down the offer of course).. I asked him about the build and he said the hardest part was extending the front end. Thats why I want something that can achieve high horsepower but fits in my car without extending the front or destroying my firewall.
