9 months no hiccup for a BMW is good? The car I drive hasn't had any hiccup in 24 years with 190k miles... was thinking BMWs look great but it seems reliability expectations are low
2 years here m140i and no problems, just servicing every year/6-7k miles. i did replace my PCV valve today for preventative maintenance as those do wear out, mine had a split in it but showed no symptoms of smoke/whistling, only takes like 5 minutes to change and costs a tenner
I have both an N54 and an N55 in two different cars. The N54 has many reliability issues, but nothing catastrophic assuming you don't have turbo wastegate issues before 85k where they extended the warranty to and even then its not catastrophic. The N55 has less issues, but can have rod bearing issues - this is catastrophic and generally requires a new engine or a rebuild - ask me how I know :( . Another issue it can have eccentric shaft failure which can cost $4k plus to replace. But you are right that with the B58 they finally seem to have gotten in right, a nice evolution.
BMW rarely have issues with its engine block, the block is very reliable. The real issue is the plastics and electronics inside the engine that'll breakdown sooner than you expected
What makes it different to any other car though? Mustangs have plastic oil pans now...Even your typical Hemi engine has a plastic intake. BMW has actually gone up in reliability than backwards.
@@GokuTheHusky the quality and grade of plastics they use. Compared to a Toyota, Honda, or Ford, I find that overtime BMW plastic gets extremely brittle over time to compared to other brands.
@@alextran8188 Part of that is due to higher operating temperatures of BMW engines for emissions. While most engines sit at around 85C, a BMW will sit at 100-105C
One of the tuners I know has the 2020 Supra with the b58 ... He has tuned it to 677 kw which is about 905hp ... The engine internals unchanged and he believes the limit of the stock engine block is around 1000hp ....
For a modern engine of that size , it's insane and more then enough for any car enthusiast with deep pockets . The only people that hate on the mk5 supra are the keyboard warriors .
@@cosmins3268 For real. Toyota isn't a bunch of idiots. If they trusted bmw to make a car that would live up to be called the mk5 supra, then certainly they were up to the task. I mean for god sakes, McLaren trusted them to make the engine for the F1
You forgot to mention that the B58 had to meet Toyota quality control. It only passed Toyota's quality control after Toyota's engineer sent back 1000's of B58 parts back to Germany for improvements. Now all BMW models with B58's benefit from this.
The 2JZGTE engine will always be my favorite engine - the power and sounds it makes are so emotional (plus it looks amazing too). However, BMW’s B58 and S58 engines have clearly risen to the new height of modern inline-six king of engines.
I have to admit that I wasn’t happy about Toyota using a bmw engine in the new Supra until recently learning more about that engine. Learning about the reliability, and tune ability of it and how Toyota made sure it was up to their standards for reliability. So I went and got a 340i with a b58 in it and traded in my Lexus is350 and couldn’t be happier.
I have the new Mini Cooper S with the B48 engine - the smaller 4 cyl brother of the B58 - its a modular design so the pistons, rods etc etc are the same. This engine is unburstable. Its done 78k and on a recent dyno pulled 214bhp, and its stock. Theyre only meant to make 192bhp when new. Astonishing. I still get 42 - 45 mpg on a cruise at 70mph. Never had to put oil in it outside of a service. Cant recommend them enough.
@@nathanperdomo2111 Yeah, its a great engine, but doesnt like revving much past 5000-5400rpm. Mine's covered 106k now, and is still very reliable and sound. Ive just ordered a JCW, but due to the supply chain for electronics being so bad, it will be next year before I see it !
The B58 is not really just 5 years old. It is an evolution of the N54 (bi turbo) and N55 (twin scroll turbo) engines from cars like the 335i going back to 2005 iirc in the E60 535i. There are also variants like the S55 from the last M3/M4 and the S58 from the current M3/M4. Reliability issue you hear of from the earlier engines are normally from the bolt on bits and not the actual engine itself.
The N52, N54, N55, and B58 are all wildly impressive when you take a step back and look at their competition. Yes, they have some faults. But it's nothing overly wild considering the performance and driving dynamics you get.
TL;DR: it's not about history I find the B58 vs the 2JZ very similar to the FA20 vs the EJ25. Yes the EJ has been around for decades and yes there's more knowledge for EJ's, but the FA has a better top end, better stock turbo and better tuning potential. It's basically purists vs engineers, yes the FA also had downsides (the bottom end isn't that strong and the compression ratio is kinda high) and it wasn't put through the paces of motorsports but the knowledge learned throughout the EJ platform's lifetime is implemented into the FA's platform. You can scream and cry about how some things are better then others, but there was a time where the EJ25 and 2JZ sucked in the aftermarket department. If the drive to make the engine(s) better, it'll be better sometime down the road.
Not sure why you brought Subaru engines into this, but the newer FA20DIT is a bit of a disappointment. However, the FA20 NA found in the BRZ or 86 is far better than the FA20DIT found in the WRX. Most likely because Toyota co developed this engine.
Having put my foot down while driving a 340i in Sport Plus, I experienced an out of the world experience! It's scary as a stock engine, a tuned B58 is just :O WHAT AN ENGINE! A MASTERPIECE!
I sold bmws during this time and switchover. To be honest I LOVED the n54 engine sound. but the B58 is much more universal, brakes less, and the damn temperature housing gasket doesnt fail
@@danascoles1205 agreed that it’s more reliable, the B58 had to start somewhere however. The engine itself is bulletproof- the ancillaries let the N54 down! Just had to change my HPFP lol, so I can feel your pain.
@@watchkevingo my n54 in my 335is got upgraded turbos at 55,000 miles and only had to change one coil. It's still running good at 82,000 making 680 wheel horsepower on e85 with the original hpfp.
ayy b58! I sure love mine (2020 M240i) I have a stage 2 dinan tune as well and a whole bunch of other mods. its super fast, no problems (so far), and sounds incredible!! everything stock + dinan stage 2 tune is supposed to be around 420 ish wheel horsepower but I havent tried a dyno yet. best part is I still have my warranty
How? Any tuning of the ECU will void your warranty. Maybe a piggyback tune since you can take it off but a ECU tune will always be detectable even if you change it back to stock
@@JL-rx7ou its a ECU flash and either Dinan provides their own warranty or because its a conservative tune i can still use my manufacture warranty. which ever it is I made extra sure that was the case before getting it
How can you tune a car to stage 2 without modding the engine bolt ons? That would just be a very good stage 1 tune. Stage 2 is when you start messing with intercoolers and exhaust systems
the n54, n55, b58 are great engines. Have a N55 and no problems with it. Oil change interval to 10tkm and not too much torque when the engine isn´t on temp.
BMW has made many flipping awesome engines, just not that many "recently". M30, M88, M54, S88, to name but a few, although all are straight 6's. For info, the BMW F1 engine used in the 1980's, with massive turbo's and producing up to 1,500BHP from 1.5litres, was built around old M10 standard road going engine. In fact the block was the "stock block". It's only the engines from the last 15 years or so that have tended to have "reliability" issues.
Yours is about the only response from someone who is familiar with BMW history. My vote for the greatest BMW engine would have gone to the M10, which powered everything from a lowly 318i to an F-1 car. But hey, don't expect others to agree here as it is only a 4 cylinder.
You should look at the BMW N54 engine it is legendary for pushing over 700 hp on stock bottom end, plus the fact the N54 has a forged crank and rods makes it a better choice, twin parallel turbos plus the after market support has made the N54 a tuners dream and hence the title of German 2JZ
Exactly the same stuff was said about N54 engine aswell... "best Bmw tuners engine", "German 2jz" and so on. So b58 isnt the only Bmw engine out there to be called all that. Though evolution has made it a bit more reliable by getting rid of expensive piezo fuel injection and electric waterpump. N54 was more revolutionary, experimental, B58 is evolutionary step from that. And between the two we have N55 aswell.
What made the 2JZ so solid was the iron block/closed deck. The BMW engine is nice but the plastics worry me, along with very expensive VANOS solenoids that can fail.
I have a 340i Msport, bought it used. Came with M brakes and upgraded suspension. Work done so far - Performance air intake High flow catted downpipe Charge pipe Upgraded spark plugs and ignition coils Tune Pushing good power. North of 400WHP. Getting meth injection setup and exhaust upgrade next month. Undecided on upgrading the turbo. Any tips on getting it to near 600whp?
You heard wrong. It's 2024. BMW has the biggest aftermarket parts industry in the US, outside of the American cars. It's no longer impossible to find parts. Wtf lol
@Zion lords I blew the stock zf8hp45 on the 535i. If you do have xDrive and xHP, I really recommend doing oil changes for the trans every 20k and not 50k, xDrive puts more stress on the gearbox. Just take care of the trans if you want to tune it. Otherwise it's been pretty reliable apart from oil leaks here and there. I put in a used trans for $5k (including labor) and it's working great
@@GodKing804 how much hp were you pushing? I have an lci xdrive f10 n55 with 8hp45 and mine has no issues. Im pushing just north of 518hp. No trans oil change ever and the only thing i had an issue with was the transfer case but that can generally be bypassed with xhp
I have a N54 powered car and I can tell you for a fact that the B58 is better in pretty much every aspect. The only thing the N54 has over the B58 is the chassis of the cars it came in.
People complain about the supra for being expensive, imagine how expensive it would've been if they develpped their own engine? Oh and not to mention these enthusiasts crying about everything don't even buy the damn cars.
@@samirsakir5771 Toyota has enough money yes, but the Supra clientele isn’t shelling out Porsche 911 Turbo S money for a car that only comes with a ~350 hp engine.
And absolutely no feedback in the steering wheel. I disliked it so much when I test drove one. No emotions at all. But that might be the story of new cars except stuff like a GT3 and some others. 😂
In your video at 4:19 mintues you should a block which is a open deck the B58 is a closed deck system. Just a head up. Closed deck system is a more stronger engine design.
How are they defining reliability tho? The B58 has only been around 5-6 years. I would be very impressed if the engine experiences no mechanical problems past 150k mileage
@@inosurrender8327 I haven’t really seen anything on the forums other than basic maintance. Some people complaining about oil burning issues in the ‘21 Supras but I think that’s mostly because of the wrong viscosity used (0w20) in areas like the Northeast US. I haven’t seen any complaints from the BMW side
The m3 version of this engine can make 500+hp, return 30 mpg, be warrantied for 60k, and oil is fine for 10k miles according to bmw. Wtf why are we gong electric?
Though i prefer the 2JZ, im glad Toyota went B58 for the Supra. However i completely disagree with the whole argument that making a "3JZ" would have been to expensive. If, just like Nissan did with the GTR, Toyota had gone the V6 route instead of I6, then they pretty much already had the perfect engine in house. The 2GR-FE (3.5L V6) that they pretty much put on everything. Even on Lotus Exiges and Evoras. That engine is highly tunable and easily able to withstand 500sh HP. And it meets regulations. And its super light weight. And it sounds absolutely awesome. Imo thats the engine the new Supra should have had...
If your going to compare something to a 2jz an S55 or S58 is much closer if not better for most practical purposes. The 2jz is heavier but more bulletproof; the M engines are lighter, quicker (twin turbo) and way more hightech but less bulletproof. I have an S55 F82 M4 and 700-800 hp is pretty easy if your willing to write the check BUT I've never heard of 1500+hp M cars like you see with the 2JZ Supra, this is what has made them legendary.
I'm ok with the engine in the GR Supra, the problem is everything else. I would like it if the only bmw thing was the engine and it had a manual option
I was a BMW tech and I can say that the b58 are pretty solid. They also make a b46 that is a 4cyl that is the exact design of the b58 just cutting off 2 cylinders. Alot better than than the n20 reputation haha. Overall I'm not the biggest fan of BMW but I would definitely buy a supra if I had the chance and be fine with the b58.
The BMW-Supra is not just a BMW engined Supra but the whole car is a BMW! That’s means the chassis, electronics, gearbox, suspension and so on are all BMW!
I’d argue the S1000rr engine in BMW’s sportsbike is the best they’ve done - no recent history of 1000cc superbike engines but just dropped into the class and decimated the big four Japanese factories, redefined what could be done with such a small capacity.
Maybe you already know, but BMW was an engine manufacturer in F1 back in the early 2000's. With that in mind it isn''t mindbogling to me that they did that 1000cc as good as they did :)
@@M4RK_F it’s not as straightforward as that, Ilmor built F1 engines but made a complete hash of their MotoGP bike - Cosworth used their F1 experience to help Aprilia with their MotoGP bike and it was a dog - F1’s John Barnard and Lotus tried to build a bike for the Kenny Roberts team in 2003 and it was crap too…regardless of BMW’s F1 history the fact they dropped into a class they’ve never been part of and instantly dominated is pretty special.
N54 block itself can handle 850hp+ on stock block the maintenance around it is trash but if your buying a 2jz for the 90s you’d have to put in just about the same maintenance. Plus the N54 is way more torquey bottom end because of the longer stroke.
@@edwardruelas3116 also the N54 has DFI which is good for preventing knock, the worst part of maintenance is the turbo wastegates but if you upgrade to TD04s it's not an issue. Injectors and HPFP, and oil filter gasket are the only other major maintenance issues. Just expensive is all.
The N52 is a great engine but not very tuneable. And of course isn’t comparable to anything Toyota makes because Toyota don’t have any engine as advanced as what BMW have.
I have an m140i, had it around a year with no issues. 1 minor problem which this engine seems to have and a lot of reports on the same issue is coolant usage. My little tank keeps going below the minimum and I have to keep topping it up. Its not leaking from anywhere either.. I heard if you replace the cap this can fix the issue, might give that a go.
I’m a year late so guess you have fixed the problem, but if there is no visible sight of leakage it will be the coolent filler cap, just buy a new one problem solved
Love my m140i. 😍 The B58 is phenomenal! But needs must and the m140i is going in the next few months... Making way for a X5 45e. Plenty of room for the 2 dogs, wife and the wee man.
@@zvonimirkrajina2211 would have loved a 5 series touring. But my wife prefers the ride height of the x5. Plus we recently moved out in to the Scottish countryside and driving down dirt roads is much nicer in the x5.
That last part with cars having to meet new emission standards is a fact that many people seem to overlook when comparing newer engines to old ones. They cannot simply build an exact replica of a 2JZ anymore, especially having a heavy iron block that would add unnecessary weight to the vehicle, and a reason why so many car manufacturers are using plastic components. It sucks, I would love an engine built with an iron block and all forged parts, barely any plastic parts, and more simplistic design; it would be more expensive and bullet proof but it isn't feasible today.
Its an absolute masterpiece of an engine, solid and reliable, sounds great, 430bhp from just a software tune yet capable of sitting comfortably over 40mpg on long journeys. Regret selling my M140i but hopefully going to buy an M340i soon 😂
Nope......nope, nope, nope. The greatest engine BMW ever made, arguably, was the M10 four cylinder based engines. The M12 Formula 1 engine and the S14 engined M3 used the M10 as a base to kick butt and take names. And bonus, they didn't leak so much😆
Too bad BMW put the cam gears on the same side you bolt to the transmission, meaning for anything related to timing you gotta pull the motor. Also that aluminum open deck block won't be able to handle much more than 800 bhp, the 2JZ is closed deck cast iron and has been known to make over 1500 bhp
It’s based off the B57 diesel closed deck block which actually has a larger bore than the B58 so it has even more meat around the bore than a normal block would. Also we don’t live in the 90s, modern engines don’t go through timing chains left and right (looking at you Audi 4.2 & M62.) the timing chain guides should easily last 150k miles if not significantly more just like previous BMW inline-6s.
I think Papadakis's B58 already has 1000HP on stock internals. Not sure how much more power the block would withstand, but stock vs stock internals, the B58 is stronger than the 2JZ, all while being ~60 kilos ligher.
@@Enthusiastlist Ik they dont go through timing chains often, but if you want to tune the motor then youre gonna have to pull the motor to replace the cams, or do any other timing related mod.
It is said that in order to create the 2JZ-GE / 2JZ-GTE engine TOYOTA just took YAMAHA'S work with the 1JZ-GTE / 1JZ-GTE engines, wich are said to be developed by YAMAHA. And then is the other rumor that YAMAHA just "took inspiration" (copied) the best features of a BMW 6 cylinder in line engine of that era. So, YAMAHA'S 1JZ is "inspired" in a BMW engine and the 2JZ is just TOYOTA's copy of YAMAHA's work (wich is a copy of BMW's work) So for the JZA80 Supra we got: The 2JZ-GTE has its block casted at an European foundry (Engine block cast made in Europe) Cylinder head is YAMAHA's work and manual transmission is a Getrag, wich is Made in Europe...
People like to complain about the supra because is a bmw yet they don't complain about the gt/gr86 that it's a Subaru . The supra is back , has a great engine and can go only up from here until is cancelled because no more internal combustion engines .

@E123 compared to the past n54 and n55. The b58 has had less issues in the same timeline as the past. That’s why they say it’s reliable. But yes I agree. It is too early to say it’s reliable
I am really happy with BMW B57 engine in my Mini JCW clubman 306hp. BMW built this fantastic 2.0-Liter TwinPower turbo petrol engine also in X2 M35i and X1 M135i
I worked for bmw as a product specialist and can confirm the b58 is a beast and reliable. That motor had been updated almost yearly since it’s release in 2015, that’s right it’s 7 year old now! A word to the Toyota fans is that the mk4 ended the supra production because of terrible sales figures. If you want Toyota to keep production you’re going to have to go buy them brand new to support the company. Money talks. My wife works at Toyota and guess what, they sold less than 5 last year. This year so far 2.

Another issue it can have eccentric shaft failure which can cost $4k plus to replace. But you are right that with the B58 they finally seem to have gotten in right, a nice evolution.
@@alangil40 yeah the N54 issues are well documented these days with reliable replacements available.
No one has ever called the n55 super reliable, it's just slightly more so than the n54 😂
B58 is way more reliable than the N55.
What about the M versions? Or: S55?
BMW rarely have issues with its engine block, the block is very reliable. The real issue is the plastics and electronics inside the engine that'll breakdown sooner than you expected
What makes it different to any other car though? Mustangs have plastic oil pans now...Even your typical Hemi engine has a plastic intake. BMW has actually gone up in reliability than backwards.
@@GokuTheHusky the quality and grade of plastics they use. Compared to a Toyota, Honda, or Ford, I find that overtime BMW plastic gets extremely brittle over time to compared to other brands.
@@GokuTheHusky BMW has a reputation for using horrible quality plastics for their cooling system that tend to self destruct over time.
@@alextran8188 Part of that is due to higher operating temperatures of BMW engines for emissions. While most engines sit at around 85C, a BMW will sit at 100-105C

I have to admit that I wasn’t happy about Toyota using a bmw engine in the new Supra until recently learning more about that engine. Learning about the reliability, and tune ability of it and how Toyota made sure it was up to their standards for reliability. So I went and got a 340i with a b58 in it and traded in my Lexus is350 and couldn’t be happier.
That Toyota had anything to do with it is a hoax, greetings from Munich 😉
Smart man.
I have the new Mini Cooper S with the B48 engine - the smaller 4 cyl brother of the B58 - its a modular design so the pistons, rods etc etc are the same. This engine is unburstable. Its done 78k and on a recent dyno pulled 214bhp, and its stock. Theyre only meant to make 192bhp when new. Astonishing. I still get 42 - 45 mpg on a cruise at 70mph. Never had to put oil in it outside of a service. Cant recommend them enough.
Mini cooper S owner here!! I agree with you. Absolutely an incredible and stable engine!! Full of immense low end torque!!
@@nathanperdomo2111 Yeah, its a great engine, but doesnt like revving much past 5000-5400rpm. Mine's covered 106k now, and is still very reliable and sound. Ive just ordered a JCW, but due to the supply chain for electronics being so bad, it will be next year before I see it !
The B58 is not really just 5 years old. It is an evolution of the N54 (bi turbo) and N55 (twin scroll turbo) engines from cars like the 335i going back to 2005 iirc in the E60 535i. There are also variants like the S55 from the last M3/M4 and the S58 from the current M3/M4. Reliability issue you hear of from the earlier engines are normally from the bolt on bits and not the actual engine itself.
I love my M240i. Extremely fun, great sound & torque all over.
You can swap out the the plastic parts like
Intake
Cam cover

The N52, N54, N55, and B58 are all wildly impressive when you take a step back and look at their competition. Yes, they have some faults. But it's nothing overly wild considering the performance and driving dynamics you get.
Had a m240. The engine is masterclass!!!
Had a lot of bmws and some fantastic bmw engines but this one is THE BEST
The motors raw power feels insane. So happy I got my dream car
TL;DR: it's not about history
I find the B58 vs the 2JZ very similar to the FA20 vs the EJ25. Yes the EJ has been around for decades and yes there's more knowledge for EJ's, but the FA has a better top end, better stock turbo and better tuning potential. It's basically purists vs engineers, yes the FA also had downsides (the bottom end isn't that strong and the compression ratio is kinda high) and it wasn't put through the paces of motorsports but the knowledge learned throughout the EJ platform's lifetime is implemented into the FA's platform. You can scream and cry about how some things are better then others, but there was a time where the EJ25 and 2JZ sucked in the aftermarket department. If the drive to make the engine(s) better, it'll be better sometime down the road.
Not sure why you brought Subaru engines into this, but the newer FA20DIT is a bit of a disappointment. However, the FA20 NA found in the BRZ or 86 is far better than the FA20DIT found in the WRX. Most likely because Toyota co developed this engine.
This seems to be a similar story with the new b58 found in the Supra.
yeah, way before the 2jz era people use the rb26
340i gang. This engine, especially with the ZF8 is a dream I live daily… never can get enough of the MPPSK exhaust note.

BMW has made many flipping awesome engines, just not that many "recently". M30, M88, M54, S88, to name but a few, although all are straight 6's. For info, the BMW F1 engine used in the 1980's, with massive turbo's and producing up to 1,500BHP from 1.5litres, was built around old M10 standard road going engine. In fact the block was the "stock block".
It's only the engines from the last 15 years or so that have tended to have "reliability" issues.
Eight letters that it seems none of these guys are aware of or understand, DI-CBU= (big) PIA.
Yours is about the only response from someone who is familiar with BMW history. My vote for the greatest BMW engine would have gone to the M10, which powered everything from a lowly 318i to an F-1 car. But hey, don't expect others to agree here as it is only a 4 cylinder.
Idiot comment. They've made so many fantastic engines. Where have you been? Lmfao
I have an N55 that was produced at the same the B58 was being produced. I think late model N55 shares a few late improvements the B58 introduced
Here's an idea for BMW: See what Toyota & Honda use to seal oily things and if anything gets real hot, make it out of aluminum.
You should look at the BMW N54 engine it is legendary for pushing over 700 hp on stock bottom end, plus the fact the N54 has a forged crank and rods makes it a better choice, twin parallel turbos plus the after market support has made the N54 a tuners dream and hence the title of German 2JZ
Yup. Not to mention it’s so easy and cheap to make big power.
Love my z4 M40i what a beast.
Exactly the same stuff was said about N54 engine aswell... "best Bmw tuners engine", "German 2jz" and so on. So b58 isnt the only Bmw engine out there to be called all that. Though evolution has made it a bit more reliable by getting rid of expensive piezo fuel injection and electric waterpump. N54 was more revolutionary, experimental, B58 is evolutionary step from that. And between the two we have N55 aswell.
Recently found your channel, I like it. Keep it up, subbed.
What made the 2JZ so solid was the iron block/closed deck. The BMW engine is nice but the plastics worry me, along with very expensive VANOS solenoids that can fail.
Vanos solenoids are 50 USD each and take 15 minutes to replace

How’s your 535i been treating you? I have one as well
@Zion lords I blew the stock zf8hp45 on the 535i. If you do have xDrive and xHP, I really recommend doing oil changes for the trans every 20k and not 50k, xDrive puts more stress on the gearbox.
Just take care of the trans if you want to tune it. Otherwise it's been pretty reliable apart from oil leaks here and there.
I put in a used trans for $5k (including labor) and it's working great
@@GodKing804 how much hp were you pushing? I have an lci xdrive f10 n55 with 8hp45 and mine has no issues. Im pushing just north of 518hp. No trans oil change ever and the only thing i had an issue with was the transfer case but that can generally be bypassed with xhp
I think BMW can take the trophy for creating the greatest inline 6 engines.
N54 > B58 IMO
I personally don't like turbos though, very much love my N52, but think the greatest engine award belongs to the S85 (5.0 V10)

It’s hard to tell whether you’re referencing crank or wheel hp. I’d recommend specifying the readouts one the future 👍🏻

If, just like Nissan did with the GTR, Toyota had gone the V6 route instead of I6, then they pretty much already had the perfect engine in house. The 2GR-FE (3.5L V6) that they pretty much put on everything. Even on Lotus Exiges and Evoras. That engine is highly tunable and easily able to withstand 500sh HP. And it meets regulations. And its super light weight. And it sounds absolutely awesome. Imo thats the engine the new Supra should have had...
Denken ist anstrengen... Da haben sich schon Leute dabei verletzt..
BMW's greatest engine is the S70/2 V12
If your going to compare something to a 2jz an S55 or S58 is much closer if not better for most practical purposes. The 2jz is heavier but more bulletproof; the M engines are lighter, quicker (twin turbo) and way more hightech but less bulletproof. I have an S55 F82 M4 and 700-800 hp is pretty easy if your willing to write the check BUT I've never heard of 1500+hp M cars like you see with the 2JZ Supra, this is what has made them legendary.

@@M4RK_F it’s not as straightforward as that, Ilmor built F1 engines but made a complete hash of their MotoGP bike - Cosworth used their F1 experience to help Aprilia with their MotoGP bike and it was a dog - F1’s John Barnard and Lotus tried to build a bike for the Kenny Roberts team in 2003 and it was crap too…regardless of BMW’s F1 history the fact they dropped into a class they’ve never been part of and instantly dominated is pretty special.
@@simondrew7346 i see your point, and I don't disagree. Atleast BMW has some experience with small high revving engines from earlier.
The best, most reliable BMW engine of modern times is the N52 and it is still not comparable to anything Toyota makes.
The N52 is dummy reliable, and the 54 is probably what people compared to the 2J first
N54 block itself can handle 850hp+ on stock block the maintenance around it is trash but if your buying a 2jz for the 90s you’d have to put in just about the same maintenance. Plus the N54 is way more torquey bottom end because of the longer stroke.
@@edwardruelas3116 also the N54 has DFI which is good for preventing knock, the worst part of maintenance is the turbo wastegates but if you upgrade to TD04s it's not an issue. Injectors and HPFP, and oil filter gasket are the only other major maintenance issues. Just expensive is all.
true N52 is the best ever
The N52 is a great engine but not very tuneable. And of course isn’t comparable to anything Toyota makes because Toyota don’t have any engine as advanced as what BMW have.
I have an m140i, had it around a year with no issues. 1 minor problem which this engine seems to have and a lot of reports on the same issue is coolant usage. My little tank keeps going below the minimum and I have to keep topping it up. Its not leaking from anywhere either.. I heard if you replace the cap this can fix the issue, might give that a go.

@@zvonimirkrajina2211 would have loved a 5 series touring. But my wife prefers the ride height of the x5. Plus we recently moved out in to the Scottish countryside and driving down dirt roads is much nicer in the x5.
That last part with cars having to meet new emission standards is a fact that many people seem to overlook when comparing newer engines to old ones. They cannot simply build an exact replica of a 2JZ anymore, especially having a heavy iron block that would add unnecessary weight to the vehicle, and a reason why so many car manufacturers are using plastic components. It sucks, I would love an engine built with an iron block and all forged parts, barely any plastic parts, and more simplistic design; it would be more expensive and bullet proof but it isn't feasible today.

Thanks to the community. The ineos can also exceed in the 4x4 segment.

they have been making better engines than anything forever?
Legends like the M88 and the M10 for sure.
S70/2, S54, S62, S85, M57, N54, They've made plenty of great engines. Some more reliable than others.
Too bad BMW put the cam gears on the same side you bolt to the transmission, meaning for anything related to timing you gotta pull the motor.
Also that aluminum open deck block won't be able to handle much more than 800 bhp, the 2JZ is closed deck cast iron and has been known to make over 1500 bhp
It's not open deck. I'm not sure why they showed an open deck image there. Check out a teardown of the engine. It's a closed deck.
It’s based off the B57 diesel closed deck block which actually has a larger bore than the B58 so it has even more meat around the bore than a normal block would. Also we don’t live in the 90s, modern engines don’t go through timing chains left and right (looking at you Audi 4.2 & M62.) the timing chain guides should easily last 150k miles if not significantly more just like previous BMW inline-6s.
I think Papadakis's B58 already has 1000HP on stock internals. Not sure how much more power the block would withstand, but stock vs stock internals, the B58 is stronger than the 2JZ, all while being ~60 kilos ligher.
@@Kiyolani interesting, I wonder why they showed that then.
@@Enthusiastlist Ik they dont go through timing chains often, but if you want to tune the motor then youre gonna have to pull the motor to replace the cams, or do any other timing related mod.
It is said that in order to create the 2JZ-GE / 2JZ-GTE engine TOYOTA just took YAMAHA'S work with the 1JZ-GTE / 1JZ-GTE engines, wich are said to be developed by YAMAHA. And then is the other rumor that YAMAHA just "took inspiration" (copied) the best features of a BMW 6 cylinder in line engine of that era. So, YAMAHA'S 1JZ is "inspired" in a BMW engine and the 2JZ is just TOYOTA's copy of YAMAHA's work (wich is a copy of BMW's work)
So for the JZA80 Supra we got:
The 2JZ-GTE has its block casted at an European foundry (Engine block cast made in Europe) Cylinder head is YAMAHA's work and manual transmission is a Getrag, wich is Made in Europe...

Mercedes can. beat that. They tried to turn an $.85 o-ring replacement on the vario roof latch into a $3000 repair job.
BMW makes engines for Toyota, Rolls, Land Rover now, and McLaren and Minis. They’re taking over the automotive world and I am not mad about it
Love my 440i ;) 3.0 turbocharged beast. Starting tunes next week!
Isn’t that what they said about the N55, then the B58 come out ..
Does the s58 give forged pistons and rods?
Edit: it does. What a badass motor.
I worked for bmw as a product specialist and can confirm the b58 is a beast and reliable. That motor had been updated almost yearly since it’s release in 2015, that’s right it’s 7 year old now! A word to the Toyota fans is that the mk4 ended the supra production because of terrible sales figures. If you want Toyota to keep production you’re going to have to go buy them brand new to support the company. Money talks. My wife works at Toyota and guess what, they sold less than 5 last year. This year so far 2.
