Cheap manual trans AMG Mercedes drift cars?

- I saw something at a recent Lone Star Drift event which I have never seen before, which is AMG Mercedes drift cars. I thought it was super interesting, and I was super busy so this isn't a well thought out video, just something I stumbled upon. But it basically comes down to instructions on how to build an AMG Mercedes drift car for yourself.

Everyone don't forget to go sign the RPM act save Motorsports save our race cars save the aftermarket performance industry let your voices be heard much love everyone
Thanks Aaron and Sy again for hosting the event!! I had so much fun, met a lot of cool people and I'll def be back for the next one (in May?). I learned so much about the car and myself. For those wanting to see footage of it sliding I'll have a video out here this weekend on my channel!
I have a 06 clk500 I plan to do a manual swap with and will definitely watch your vids on how to do it.
bro. i'm subbing right now.
YES I HAVE BEEN DYEING TO SEE SOMEONE DO THIS IN THE USA
Thank you for highlighting the AMG manual swaps and the boy Jikjakz!!! BIG Respect!
The 55's are so underrated! I drive clk55 and they are great! For the money, you can't get anything that has better performance and it's pretty reliable
At last! I've been waiting so long for a merc video!
Manual AMG's FTW
There's a guy local to me who rips a very similar mercedes. Definitely an awesome platform with the manual swap.
YES I have been waiting for this
Cool video. It would've been great if Aaron added the YT link in the description.
I always enjoy this kind of content so keep on doing it!
Can tell from this video he’s kind of slow.
Like when he asked the horsepower numbers literally right after JikJaks said it......... come on dude. Wake up
They've made 1JZ swap kits for the 124 chassis' for years now. That's the route I was going to go years back. :) Great video. Would love to see Mercedes in drifting. The M103/104 are beasts of engines
im in the process of finishing mine, hopefully i will hae start up vid
@@romeo1951 Nice!
My dad had a 2001 clk430. It had a OEM limited slip, some insanely expensive coilovers, and some hella sick 3 piece wheels. I loved everything about the car except the lazy ass torque converter automatic transmission. I would have bought it from him if i knew crossfire manual transmissions and pedals bolted in. I bought a brand new yz450f instead. Im balls deep in a pretty unique build right now y'all might like, its a 1995 ford Thunderbird. I built a forged L33 with twin gt45s (not sticking out the hood theyre tucked under the factory hood) all holley management, T56, and believe it or not, they have IRS. which is why i decided to build one. The rear suspension is actually surprisingly good so all im doing is coilovers, subframe connectors, and a spool with 4.11s. The front suspension is sn95. So its getting the wisefab kit. The chassis is on my rotisserie undergoing weight reduction, seam welding, roll cage, subframe connectors, and getting prepped for the kit and 3 piece 20×14s in the back and 19×10s up front. The rears are gonna have 5 inches of lip. Its getting a pandem wide body kit for a e39, roof spoiler for a sc300, '98 cobra front bumper, and the lowest part of the car is gonna be the differential. Everything is getting tucked up and away almost like a tube chassis stock car. My goals are 2800 pounds wet with me in it, safe and clean 800 wheel hp, not excessively loud, comfortable interior with a good stereo, air conditioning. Its gonna be just gloss black on top of black primer and black sealer and ill lay down 8 coats of clear to give it that depth, chrome barrels with gold centers, red highlights and details like calipers, shift boot, stitching on the seats etc. And of course SUPER blacked out windows and lights cuz it looks fuckin tough. Trust me when i say the renderings my little brother and i did on his computer are sooooo boner inspiring. Its gonna be such a mean looking car. Ill let you know when it comes off the rollers maybe you'll fly out to Reno Nevada and see the most badass Tbird in existence, Thor. Get it? THUNDERbird, Thor is the god of thunder, im a total marvel nerd, plus this car is gonna fuck shit up like Thor does.
Yes Man!! MB power is out there and goes side ways !!)) mad !! Respect!!
Now this I like, VERY MUCH.
Takumi: "Have fun with the mercedes guy"
*The mercedes guy:*
Oh hey, I met this guy recently. Great car.
this is to damn amazing
This is awesome
Its different and I love it
W210 is amazing, so glad to see them getting some love. I wonder if the M113k supercharger would bolt onto these. Eurocharged and RaceIQ offer tuning options for the W211, so they could probably figure out a tuning solution.
You can actually, but its a bit of work. I might do it down the line, but I'm leaning towards turboing the car.. this is like far future though. Haha
im from europe and we had e55 amg kompressor w210
Tag his channel
^^^
It’s “Jikjakz”
Absolute god send
Yea and if it’s a later model, you can slap a supercharger on it from a w211 Or tbh you don’t have to use a 55, easily could use a clk430 or a e430 and have slightly less power
more of these plz whenever
I have a 2001 55 amg clk and what to know if I could put a m113k engine in it. What are suggestions.
Ya, depending on what i hear this might be the route i go. B/c i want that VIP type tight style. I eyed em, but problem is/was trans.
If they’re driven on the street, how does it go about smog with the light on?
What seats are those in the black Mercedes
Where did he get the fenders for clk? Anyone know
I got a Rhd 210 wagon up here in Canada , would love to do this swap . I would probably need a pedal solution tho ...
Oem rhd pedals for those are worthless here in Ireland
I don't know about those, but my clk chomps on steering pumps, has nothing done to the engine except maintenance
Will the manual transmission on the crossfire fit for a 3.5 V6, I'm currently trying to building a 2007 CLK 350 drift car and would love to manual swap if possible
I'm not 100% but I don't think so. at least not easily. crossfire's are just a chrysler brand c320/c32. which use the m112 v6, your 3.5 is the m272. I would look to see what options they had in Europe. C320 in America didn't have manual option but Europe did. the European trans and the crossfire trans are the NSG370. which also come on v6 wranglers and a few other cars.
Why no link in description to his CZcams channel
Is there any video of the CLK drifting on someone else's channel?
Jikjakz
Theres a couple. One guy in Ukraine has one with an LS swap, you have to look deep into youtube for the rest of them.
Mårten stångberg from sweden drives one🙌🏻
I thought on buying a e36 (sedan or compact) but went and bought a c230k w202, we compared it to my friends e36 and they all said the merc is way faster and has more stock angle than a e36. South Europe
Look at stav tech c230k build
@@adamsokcevic3060 znam za to da
i forget the guys name but theres a dude in sweeden who has a clk driftcar shits sweet.
dope ass car!!! what is his channel called? I tried looking it up but I dont think Im hearing him right lol
Jikjakz
I have a 99 E55 AMG in Bellingham WA USA . It would be fun to do a manual swap and install a Limited Slip Diff.
Racing diffs do a conversion kit for mercs
Haha my goal is to have one soon and hit up the tracks in Washington, I live right across the border in Canada so that’s a goal of mine
What is his youtube channel? I own a W204 that I drift. I want to do a manual swap.
Jikjakz
What's his channel ?
Jikjakz FOR YA GUYS
Thank you was like replaying hella times thank kind sir
Hello everyone, i'm building clk55 drift car and i need your advices how to make drift steering angle very well and also get advices for coilovers
Im building a c320 for drift.I went with BC coilovers. they work great and they were super easy to install. plus if need be, you can by individual parts for repair or different springs. as for the angle, I have feeling it gonna have to be a custom knuckle. let me know if you find anything out lol.
I have a m113k V8 Crossfire
Baller
Got a 2007 (w203) c350 6 speed sport 😎😎
What's it worth like 9k? 155k
i have a w210 e430 do you think the manual swap would work?
and also does the computer freak out and throw a bunch of codes ?
i love this body style and my dad has the same exact car as me. he actually is a master technician for mercedes benz USA. and i wanna mod it but it’s so hard to find good parts
There are some CLK drift cars in europe
How can I reach out to this guy 😅
Need link to his channel
Edit jikjakz
I wonder if this works on the 4.3l m113
yes. e55 is still m113, just larger bore/stroke. it'll work on the m112 v6 as well. other than the extra 2 cylinders most parts are interchangeable. I have a c320 that I'm running the fuel system and throttle body from an clk500
what is his youtube??
No drift clips?!
Car is cool but the fender flares... Oh my...
There are a lot of companies that can tune these.
how tf do they get these so cheap. the cheapest e55 is 20 grand where i live
Maybe I manual swap my slk 320 😊
This guy gives off Matt Damon vibes a bit
I have one too check my ig
why not 5.4 swap a crossfire. 🤔
They are so ugly lol! The E55 is kinda ugly too : /
Why not a slk55 manual swap
Кто-нибудь расскажите в двух словах о чем здесь говорили
Just waiting for e39s to be cool
you're late then
Did he just say its a direct bolt in swap from a chrysler crossfire. Who da fuck figures this shit out. lol. (not my dumbass apparently)
They shared the platform between the companies as a well known venture, but it was ugly as sin lol
@@LoneStarDrift Right, my parents of all people put that together for me and i was like oh ya. lol.
You guys talk and talked and talked
This guy doesn't know his shit. There are aftermarket controllers for the 722.6 and you just need to do some wiring to not leave the shifter in there.
Also there are bmw gearbox adapters for the mercedes engines, which all of them basically have the same gearbox flange. Bmw transmission is a much better route to go.
Americans dont know very much about mercedes tuning.
can you link us to an example of these controllers?
