the japanese engine has better power...and cheap plus got a lot of stock and spare parts...
the bad side is ur car is an european made and the engine is asian made...
rojak car...mostly problem with electronics if the wireman dont know his stuff...

W123... BEST FIT with Nissan RB series. even the steering rack can fit in.

W124... 260E half cut is selling less than 10k.

i see in bangkok.. lots of old mercs or bm they all do transplant of putting in toyota 1jz.. 2jz.. nissan RB...etc... salute them!!

dump in rb26dett inside.... most powerful of all nissan engines...

or u can opt for toyota engines such as 2jz or 3jz engine....

 

[Fluffy]

3jz??

1jz and 2jz the diff is the displacement. 1jz - 2.5L and 2jz 3.0L.

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

ohh.... my mistake.... i think i wanna say 1jz and 2jz... lolz.... sorry sorry for my noobiness....

 

[kanazai2001]

if dump a toy inside, u have a lot of mod work to fit the engine. if u dont mind all these headache can even go for UZ instead of JZ. UZ can offer u more than JZ in NA mode.

I also planned to convert my W126 with the Nissan RB25DETT neo headcover ( more save in fuel consumption dt LEV). Anybody has experienced on this type of tranplant? I heard a lot of beemer's and W123 convert to RB engines series but not for w126. Any comment or suggestion from sifus?

As said by Doink, source a good mechanics and wireman. Transplant an engine is not a problem but the wiring is. I would choose the RB series over the jz eventhough toyota has a good reputation of reliable engine. It is because the RB can be fit nicely with the benz.
