It's been done. Check out Pshek's c320 coupe to c32 coupe conversion...

an LS1 would be cool in a W203 if you could make it fit. definitely would shock some people by the sound of it haha
but i'd rather have a 2jz. that would be nuts in a W203

You will definitely need a new ECU (a brand new one) and have that coded to everything else. MbenzNL can help you with that. Did you read through the thread I posted for you? It has all the information about SCN coding on there and it's a coupe just like yours. PM phsek and he might help you out with what he did. You will need to have the developing software

always nice to get off track. Yeah it's a supra motor. Back in the day we used to swap those into anything : lexus is300s, e36-e46 bmws, you name it. And boy did they last.

SO.... I've been thinking more and more about trying to drop a c32 motor in my merc..... I would really appreciate some information on the ECU situation... can I use a stock c32 ECU or would I be better off geting a stand alone? what is the best to go with... I really would love for some solid answers on this folks, so if you can help me out I would greatly appreiciate it.. THanks..... Or perhaps a c55????
