dont think it is good to change the engine .
unless u are a true modder .

u can try put in MIVEC but mounted terbalik , or evo engine .

V6 mivec engine? Erm nice engine indeed....u wanna put at waja?

1.6 and 1.8 difference is only the drivetrain and over handling .
overall handling , 1.8 is much better ...
got emember changed to aftermarket 1.8 suspension kit , the car doesnt feel good at top sepeed . but original 1.8 spec ... really makes the car stable .

engine wise 18.8 is 130bhp , 1.6 is 110bhp . 20bhp difference . 130bhp is beter , torque also better .
the transmission of 1.8 is better
downside is 1.8 maintainance is high and hard to maintain in good shape .

i think change to 1.8 engine is not a wise move. cos tat engine only improve little but u pay more.LOL..1.8 version waja is using renult engine surely will be high in maintainace.
maybe u modd ur ori 1.6 abit. like lighten ur flywheel, change bigger diameter exhaust manifold , enclosed performance air filter, performance plug cables n spark plug. ur car should improve in term of power liao.  thus there FC will improve(i assume)

auto can't fix .
actually the spark plug doesnt really improve ur FC much .

Nice car. I got some collection as well.
Will post it when I get back home.

Hi All,

Does any one know what's the difference between an imitation part and original parts of the the piece of plastic on the door that holds the windows motor??

I went to a shop and ask they told me local made and original are the same.. the price for local made was around RM280 while the original was RM380, difference about RM100. But when I ask what was the difference, they told me it's the same..

However, I saw in some forums mentioned that the original one has a metal place on the part that the moter should be mounted. But the shop told me there's no metal plate on place to mount the engine..

Then I went to proton service center and they told me the part  was RM430 + labour RM35... and they told me got metal plate on the place to mount the engine... But the price was nea rto RM475...

So can anyone tell me how much is the original made part? How much should i expect... is RM475 too much to pay for?

But from the guy in lelong.. it's selling the part for RM 238...

Well.. I guess not original loh... so for those that have recently change the part.. can someone tell me how much is the actual price..  I know i can get cheaper in other shops other than proton service center...but i am to know the money i paid for is really for original one and not imitation one...

btw.. how many kinds of parts are they right now in the market...

1) original
2) locally made (imitation)
3) taiwan made (imitation too, but quality is bad than the locally made)

brother...when u can post up all ur collection?

Sorry. This few days busy like hell.

Here comes some of my collection.
