    Howya lads,
    new to this site so me irish lawd who is building a sr20 clk love it or hate it, I think it's cool when the unexpected mercedes is coming sideways towards you, so might take me a bit to upload a few pics still finding my way around this site,
    any comments are more then welcome love or hate!! :)
    right well it's a clk merc w208 I have had it for about 4 years now always loved the look of them,it had a nice little spec whenit was a daily, had a full carlosson splitter/ skirts kit, spax springs, got a front mount as it was supercharged at the time cut out the bumper a small bit, then got some jap wheels to mix it up, works bersaglio's,

    buzzed over to oz for a year like most around my age and tried to sell the car but no one was buying and tax was just insane, so built up money while in oz, bought a set of coilovers, then bought a sr engine couldn't wait to get home to filddle and fondle with the car, stripped it all out and started my build first off was the coilovers, to see how it sat, then engine interior was gutted, so after a little but more of scrambling to the sofa anytime anyone got off it to look for a few more euros :p I finally got it all together,
    current spec:
    black top vvt engine
    s15 turbo
    s/s mani
    japperformance intercooler with hard pipes
    Custom prop
    abs blanked all copper piping
    willwood hydro
    hks elbow
    hks down pipe and flexi
    then custom shotgun exhaust
    welded diff,
    18x9 bersaglio's front and 10s on the rear
