New member alert!!!
Hello w202 owners my name is Sandro and I live in Queens, New York. I’ve been on many forums like club202 (og w202 forum!!) and benzworld just viewing threads for the most part. I’ve never introduced myself on any of the forums until now. I chose this forum cause I think it’s so much better then benzworld and plus club202 is dead now :mercy: . I see that this forum is still pretty active which is great and plus there’s so many great threads I’ve read through. Now I’d like to tell you about my w202 cars at the moment. I daily a 2000 c230k sport which was my first car I got Towards the end of highschool last year. I later saved up my money and worked to buy a 1999 c43 Amg :smokin: and a 1997 C280 Sport. The amg is my project at the moment :wootrock: I’ve been gathering a few things for it over the months that I’ve had the car. I purchased 4 piston Brembos from a c32, 3 peice Wald rims, and a few things that it was missing.... I still Have a lot more to go. I hope to get the 43 ready by the summer and plan to sell my c230k, and C280 soon. Here’s a few pics of my w202s. :cheers: https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...1250a4e14.jpeg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...95c4e0b85.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...cb679376e.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...4141027621.png https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...180f59b76.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...2676924a5.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...08242de95.jpeg |

Welkome to this forum.
Looks like you're the Benz king in the hood? :y The silver one looks somehow nicer than your project AMG, must be the 744 silver metalic? What rims do you have on the silver car? The fronts and rears are deep, are they Lorinser? |
Nice c43 I’m in 5he queens area as well I haven’t seen another c43 out here https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...49210d9b2.jpeg |

JOM coilovers, are they a chinese brand?
Never heard of them. I don't know if I would use such unknown brand on an AMG? Don't know their component quality? Go with Koni adjustables and Vogtland springs. :y You can't adjust the ride height but you can fiddle with stiffness |

Don't daily the C43, especially in NY. Car is too rare to replace/repair if you get dinged, etc.I'd honestly keep one of the other w202s to daily (or at least use as a parts car).

Sounds like a plan you gonna put 18 monoblocks on the c43 |

Silver one drivers smooth but the black one is in better condition with the tuxedo interior and low miles 75k cars pretty sold I put a new transmition in it and gonna touch up the paint this summer , it needs to be lowered as well and 18 inch rims I don’t drive them every day but every chance I get I take them for a spin V8 power you now of any meetups out here would be nice to start up a MB car club |
Good find...never see any 43/36's here in north jersey.Though there is a silver 36 in North Bergen at a gas station been there for years...plated and I see it parked in different spots from time to time.... always tempted to see if the owner would sell but if I were to get a 36 I want Imperial red....
