  • Mercedes S202 budget build

    So this is my first thread on here.

    Had a w202 as my first car, the plan was to stance it, but sold it after I got a killer deal on this 99 Mercedes C220 cdi.

    Drove it home with lots of problems. 2 of the injectors was leaking, the breaks lines were in bad shape and had to get new balljoints.

    Ordered parts, fixed the car the weekend after i got it.



    Drove it like this for 3 weeks

    Got home for Easter vacation and started mounting coilovers. Bought coilovers for my old w202, and (luckily) the shipping was delayed, so i didn't get the coilovers before i got the wagon.



    Had the coilovers installed up front, all the way down, but the car didn't get much lower, one inch or so. cutted a coil. Sat like this for a week:


    Got some more parts:
    Fog lights for the bumer
    New airfilter, dieselfilter, oilfiter and oil.
    Installed the rear coilovers, all the way down, and got a reverse raked look..
    Adjusted the rear up about an inch, and removed the spring pads up front.
    Rolled and pulled the front fenders.
    And this is how she sits now:


    Wheels: Dezent F, 18x7,5, ET38. 20mm spacers in rear.
    Tires: 225/40-18




    Plans:
    -Fix the leaking water pump
    -My engine have a EPC problem? Engine dies if i drive it hard, restart the engine and it works fine.. Must find and fix the problem.
    -Fit my AMG wheels I have laying around. Front: 18x8, ET20, need new tires and bolts. Rear: 18x9,5, ET30 with 245/40-18 tires.
    -Need to fix my driverside doors, they are pushed in a bit, the rear door is the worst. (women drivers..)
    -New brakdiscs and brakepads.
    -roll and pull the front fenders some more.

                Thank you! And your car are so sweet! love the clean look Before I got my wagon, I ***** them, all the w202's and w210's look retarded when stock, in my eyes.

                Thanks Yeah, I want to go lower, espesially in front, but I think this is perfect ride height for the roads around here. Live on the west coast of Norway, we have the badest roads of Norway around here. And all the ferries around here! I **** them, they hates me. One of my buddies got stuck when driving on a ferry this other day

                    Sooo.. finally a new update. been very busy the last months, but something have been done.
                    Let the pictures talk:
                    Only iphone pictures, so don't blame the quality..

                    had a polish, shiny



                    Adjusting the alignment. The workshop refused to do it, had to raise the car a inch and a half



                    Got some new bolts. Installed the monoblocks when I had the car raised, not much clearance to the fenders.



                    Ordered some smaller tires, but couldn't wait:



                    And it was terribly driving, couldn't turn without rubbing my fenders and rubbed over just the smallest bumps. It looked like this after 3 days



                    New tires



                    I really like my fitment right now. A nice combination of fitment and drivability.







                    The wagons are pretty normal in Norway



                    Some garage pictures





                    Safety first



                    The latest pictures I took of the car before i had to go to military.

                            looks very clean and simple! monoblocks only add to the success.

                              Thanks! The wheels needs a lot of attention to get nice. Thinking about polish the lips and paint the senter white, but not sure yet.. Any toughts?
