S58 is the new 2JZ? Deep dive comparison analysis 🧐

cfm56d7b · 11-08-2023, 03:34 PM

If only this engine could be fitted in BMW i8 ...

NotSharocks · 11-08-2023, 03:56 PM

If only BMW could design it to sound good as well.

Lol. Do t hold your breathe bud. Since 2015 it’s been chainsaws on steroids with the M3/4’s. Pathetic

Kevin_The_Clean1 · 11-08-2023, 05:06 PM

The S58 is an incredibly strong / super stout engine. And his make any S58 powered car worth a great deal more in the near future. Nice to see the ICE go out with a monumental bang...

Ditch the stock muffler box.

These Bimmer motors are impressive but you have to respect the 2JZ-GTE. To put into perspective a 2019 BMW engine is being compared to a 1991 Toyota engine. Crazy!

Great video and just beautiful engineering

It’s funny (sad, rather) that when I found myself watching this video few days ago and happened to find myself starring at the Evolve video in my line up…. suddenly I became more sad. 🫤

This screenshot easily speaks 1000words.

What makes it not fit? is it the twin turbo setup? Something else? I’m curious, and hopeful that BMW will do the right thing (and necessary adjustments) and make the new Z coupe with the S58.

Adrian van Hooydonk, the chief designer of the BMW group says it won’t fit.

If you want a Z coupe, buy a Zupra !

Saw this video of a comparison between the S58 and the 2JZ engines and the disassemble and a look inside of the 1000 HP S58 engine that the the drift brothers of redbull used for drift after 2 years of trashing it, wow the S58 is just born and it’s impressive so far.

Enjoy the video.

S58 is a middle finger to E power. Love it.

Alpina would do something like that honestly. Sadly, back then, BMW executives sad no to Alpina tinkering with the i8.

i8 could have had a much longer tenure in BMW portfolio as a super car. Alas, it’s water under the bridge.

That too, very true. Would never own one. Would rather buy a Ford than owing an i8.

That’s a bit of a stretch…

But the point is valid
