Hey guys, my name is Flavio Ribeiro i'm almost 23 (21 october 1983) and i'm trying to be a neurosurgeon...i recently registered in this forum, altough i don't have plenty of time to "play" in my w203 sportcoupe i already made some mods..that you can see on the following topic:

http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=30686
(it's in the members gallery).

It was a sportcoupe evolution...but nowadays is a sportcoupe amg, with everything that an "original" amg can have.


A big hug from the sunny country,

flavio ribeiro
 
hey mate, nope.. i still have the original suspension.
u're going for a cayman? or a boxster?
i'm also thinking on something like that... don't know for sure yet.

a big hug,
 
lol eheheh. dont worry i'm always sending hugz =)

you have 265on the rears? thats not allowed here in portugal :(
how's it like? i have 245-40 .. i used to had 225-45 everywhere.
don't u feel the "weight" of the 18" when u're driving?

cheers! :D

edit: i'm almost like u on the porsche issue... i love the cayman..but it's a bit pricey, i'm also thinking on the slk amg...errr
but first i need to sell my scoupe.
 
Wow. Those mods add up to a subtley different C-Coupe. Can't have been cheap for all those original parts - the calipers especially are a nice touch.
 
Very nice, ive always wanted someone to put a CL style grill on a C-Class Coupe. fancy the challenge? :)
 
the 265s at the rear are fine...until it comes to buying tyres!!!

Why are you not allowed this in Portugal?

Those AMG calipers must have been expensive.....

Is that possible with the W202?

It would be interesting to see if the W210 AMG setup fits the W202. I know that the C32 has REAR W210 brakes. So that is something to think about.

The wholesale price of the complete W203 front set is around 500 pounds.

I installed the C32 front set on my car
- Zimmerman rotors
- ATE pads
- Used C32 calipers (mod car not crash car)

I found that using a mix of parts from various suppliers (the same factory) cost me around 300 pounds. Thats not much more than my one night stay in Oxford Circus.
 
Wow some of those mods must have cost a fortune. Good work.
 
WOULDNT IT HANE BEEN CHEAPER JUST TO IMPORT THE THE C30 AMG COUPE ?? oops sorry about the caps.
