Massive thanks to @PapadakisRacing for letting us use their footage from when they tore down a B58 - check that out here! • 2020 Supra B58 Engine ...
BMW might have built one of the best all-round engines ever. It’s tuneable, reliable and you’ll find it in everything from the 1 series to the X7. This thing can fit in a hatchback and power one of those monstrous SUVs that BMW seem to love making.
Some people are even comparing it to the famous Toyota 2JZ, an engine well-known for its ridiculous reliability and ability to withstand serious power. Oh, and it was in the Mark 4 Supra which, according to the internet, can do no wrong.
So why is this being compared to one of the most iconic engines ever? And what engineering makes this thing so popular?
-
So the 2JZ, the engine from that car from that movie franchise that so many of us love - and this B58 engine in the new 1 series - what makes them so similar?
The basic similarities are that they’re both inline sixes, they’re both 3 litres and they’re both turbocharged. Despite coming from different manufacturers, you’ll also find both engines in a Supra.
Toyota controversially turned to BMW to develop an inline six for the 5th generation of Supra after an almost 20-year wait. Toyota got a lot of stick for not making their own engine from scratch, but when it comes to straight sixes, BMW is a pretty good choice.
A lot of the comparisons to the 2JZ have come from the B58s ridiculous tunability. Video games, movies and the internet have given the old Supra a reputation for being insanely over engineered and endlessly tunable.

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.

There are also variants like the S55 from the last M3/M4 and the S58 from the current M3/M4.

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.

Have this in my 740i. For now my main radiator leaked and changed, and my driveshaft and differential destroyed on connection between (costly). Totally eaten and all of the sudden no power at all. Also changed engine mounts on 40.000 miles. Think that mount somehow did that damage on driveshaft also.

@donsirsimon 2 года назад

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.

@Duncangafney1 2 года назад

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.

@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

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

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.
