[QUOTE=Newzchspy;4500010]It is listed under the video clip in the info section as his best time. There were other members from the 202 section to verify and that was on street tires.

Negative according to the comments section: The car has a 5.5 liter swap n/a, full 3in exhaust, moddified LSD. Running on Nitto NT555R dot slick

[QUOTE=Newzchspy;4500065]I stand corrected. I swore he was on streets. Either way. Thats still damn fast for a swapped 202.

[QUOTE=austinholloman;4500091]13.1 at 101 is a good run Austin!!! Was wondering HOW does ONE mod a LSD. Other than shimming, there's not much to be done on one?? I think he meant running a Quaife??

austinholloman

No there is a huge thread how he took the 16v 190e LSD internals and put them inside a 300ce pumpkin. Only problem is, finding those older parts to source. Worked great for him until he SCed it and chewed it up.

Newzchspy

You're saying that was an SC'd run at 13.1??? Wow?? Thats it??

austinholloman

NOOOOO.... hahah He had it NA when he did the LSD mod. Then once he SCed it and ran 11's, he chewed it up... He ran a 12.8 NA with an LSD and 3" exhaust.

Newzchspy

The #s just keep getting better and better? Time slip??? You're saying that he ran almost as fast as Mike (Hooley did) in his C55 Sc'd (which holds the all time C55 record). Unless I see some time-slips, I am not buying any of it.

austinholloman

For a guy thats been around awhile, searching wouldnt hurt. He chewed his LSD mod by SCing the 5.4 and it couldnt hang with it. The 12.8 on an NA 5.4 with LSD and 3" exhaust is the real deal. The 11's was a guess back to what he has started (read it months ago) could have been off a few give or take. Thats not the point anyway.

11 second w202 for you all!

Any other questions?

Newzchspy

Now that's what I am talking about.................that's Chappy's friend, BUT that is NOT the car we were talking about Austin?? Running same engine as my Kleemann...............Very nice time for a 202!!

Oh, and those are Hoosier drags....................

IN the thread, that's a 55 motor with a Kleemann Autorotor which is no longer produced........

Nice car and great run!!! Has the all-time record for the C43/conversion.

austinholloman

^ Your right but I just wanted it to be said. With a w202 5.4 and SC it can be done. Even with slicks that barley fit!!!! hahah

ProjectC55

You definitely made it plain to this guy. Case clsd. Let the HATER ramble on!

austinholloman

^^^ Id still die for a ride in your beast! All that speed and non of the annoying SC whine to get into the way of that amazing NA V8 sound....


Just poking fun. NOT HATING!

I do not believe there are any factory C55's in the USA, but I could be wrong. There may be 1 or 2 converted examples, but I doubt it.

Some images of the W210 E60, although I do not believe this lip is factory:

Attached is the W202 C55 that circled the internet a few years back. Also has an orange and black interior.

austinholloman

There are more than three or four located on these forums and plenty more to come because the engine is drop in and turn key. No TCU or ECU replacement needed.

ProjectC55

I know your not a hater it's the guy with the slow 12.7 sec C32 who thinks thats fast.

Newzchspy

Bring that 202 on Mr. NYC!!!! No hatin here, just fact checkin!!!!

I am not like your sig, I won't run mouth and run away. I'd love to run that 202 Conversion. Anywhere near Chicago??? Let's go...........

Heck, I'd even run you in a Marathon if you want.......

ddtham

Still faster than 99.9% 202s out there

In fact I really think it was austin who felt the need to justify his C43 purchase over C32 ALL the fudging time. No one cares that C32 is a "tuner" car and not old school german muscle car like he stated or that the SC whine is so annoying, etc

Mark.D

What I meant to say was there I doubt there are any factory cars in the USA. I understand there are several conversions.

ProjectC55

Heck I guarantee you will beat me in a marathon Im more built for sprinting!
We're both Big Town City Boys
I'm in the City with all the skyscrapers. You knew that. If u r ever on the East coast you can hit me up. Bring the Kleeman SC C55 I have something for that as well with half the cylinders.

ProjectC55

I like the C32 alot. Its a nice tuner car. I dont know why Austin, if he did, felt the nd to justify purchasing it over a C32. Guess just preference. If Ihad the $ at the time I perhaps would have gone C32. I feel I did the next best thing though.

But to drop one of these 5.4l motors in these cars(W202 C43) just transforms these cars into animals. Especially on the topend as I have shown to M5's,modded SRT8's, ISF's and the like.

austinholloman

Nothing to justify really. I had the money to buy an 06 C55 if I wanted it, I just love the old school looks and style. I don't know why that is so weird. Ive stated time and time again the C32 is a great car. It just wasn't for me, not because I couldn't afford it.. We are talking about a matter of 6k more than a C43 plus or minus, not really a wallet breaker. I bought the car I own because I love it and I can't wait to see the looks on peoples faces in a year(5.4 drop in) when an IS-F, E9x M3, M1, you name it, try and pull away from me on the highway. Sleepers are fun to me. These are all just MY options. Anything else I say about to the C32 and m just poking fun at you guys. Don't take it to heart.
