Just thought I'd throw this into discussion see what some of your views are on it, if anyone knows more about it etc etc

Car






Proton Satria Neo Super 2000

Engine was based on a 1.8 Renault engine in the Waja

4 wheel drive, 4 cylinder N/A engine producing 278BHP@7000rpm and 271nm of torque. Intense power for an N/A car! Also it revs to 8,500rpm absolutely stunning looking and sounding car!
Some may recognise it from top gear, interesting facts about the Renault engine I thought was pretty cool and thought I would share lol,
Comments welcome!!

S2000 kind of gives it away

"The engine is based on the Waja 1.8 engine with racing internals and increasing the capacity to 1998cc, which is positioned transversely and producing a power output of 278bhp at 7600 rpm."

From the Proton website.

Wondered if the proton Waja bits fit the 1*2's? But sadly wikipedia says the standard Waja and Satria have Mitsi engines.

You've seen Wallace and Gromit and the Wrong Trousers. This is Proton and the Wrong Engine.

An F7 engine of similar spec will always look better than that thing

Overbored F4P to the best of my knowledge

Only thing seemingly ruining that engine is the proton badge on the front of the ITB's

No ITB's on that my friend, S2000 engines are single throttle body.
