CAR IS SOLD, THANKS

Hi all,

Up for sale is my blue merc. It is an immaculate car and I planned on keeping it once I sold the white one but I need to sell it due to financial difficulties.

I am the second owner of the car, and prior to me purchasing the car it had been in storage for 12 years. The guy that had it before me serviced it with Mercedes.

The interior is immaculate, the engine runs beautifully and it is reliable, I have taken it to the coast and to syndey and it didn't miss a beat.

I have spent some money on it, new front shocks, calipers all rebuilt, new bushes, gearbox service, carburetor rebuild, other bits an pieces, painted the roof in blue candy and lined and scrolled the car.

For the age there are few cars around that run as good and in as good as condition for the money.

Asking $3000 ONO

phone 0418 327 427

Thanks Christian,

Car has genuine 260XXX kms on it as varified by mercedes service papers. It is a 250 optioned with air con, 1974 model the last of the 114 body style.

Tranny is auto naturally most mercs are, with the manuals being very rare and a pain to get parts for, auto is the go for a cruiser like this.

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
