Cars was in scratches, therefore there was a question on a repaint
It was long defined with colour. Could not solve. Silvery colour not to be pleasant that gloomy and boring.Therefore it has been decided to recolour in another.Also the new stage and life of this car has begun :

There was a problem with the block esp. When you slip (drift) all the same continues to work. Have cracked and do a new insertion.

The result can be seen here: http://vimeo.com/13984341

WOWOWOW I love the color GREAT CHOICE (even if it is a BMW color)....

I had no clue that VATH did up a W202, I looked it up and sure enough VATH decided that the 5.4L wasn't enough and punched it out to 5.8L...... Congrats on locating a real RARE gem. Looks great keep up the good work and post more pics

Nice drifting but it appears you are lacking a LSD, bet it would be UNREAL with a LSD installed.

Very nice. There is another 5.8 W202 here somewhere, not Vath though.

Any info, pics, and specs of the motor?

Who else made a 5.8L for the W202, or did someone bore out a 5.4L on their own?

ARuss:
the grey w202 station wagon next to your blue c43 is that a real c43?
The rear bumper is from c43.
what was the original color on that car?

ARuss:
was your car fitted with 300km/h speedo when you bought it?
or did you install it your self?

So what exactly did you have done to your motor??


You started out with a 5.4 right?? How much did it cost to mod it to a 5.8 and how much gain?? The brabus c58 5.8l has around 410hp at the crank. Is yours around that same number or?
