As few people knows, SR20 hadn't been discontinued at all. Here in Chile, we got the korean version of the MAXIMA, this topic is about the brand new 2007 Samsung SM5.

I was in a friend's house when his dad arrives in the car, we started to check it around and i was greatly surprise about the car.

It has been powered with the all-mighty 4 characters, the SR20, but it is a special SR20, all the electronics and electrics parts had been replaced with valeo and renault's components, it was so strange, the classic japanese engine had became in a cosmopolitan version of itself.

click the link to get to the pictures ... basically Renault has outsourced Nissan's motor to the Koreans and it is now a MAP-based distributorless I4

We still use KA's in my country its still the most popular engine, hell people put them in Mitsubishis, Mazdas, S10's and some other cars.
