And some pictures.
This is how it looked when the box was opened.... engine no longer strapped in, just laying on its side:
And some pictures of the damage:
The engine itself was not further put out of the box, who knows what else is damaged (note: a lot of palstic on this engine)...
Dear supra community, I require your help regarding logs/data about the oil pressure on the b58 engines (worldwide models).
Occording to the specificatiobs of toyota, my car (and a few others) are below specifications for oil pressure.
we are running around 2.3-2.5 bar on a cold engine.
can...
Somebody with ecutek that can help me out please?
I want to know what the oil pressure is of other supras on a cold engine.
logging data with ecutek during stationary and send the datalog to me.
Thanks guys
Ps: new engine that Was picked up today... parts broken off during transport. Entire...
It is actually the oil recommended by Toyota. So either it is a mistake in the oilpump, or it is the oil itself.
The oil that is on, has been told during toyota training it would last for 30000km. But Gazoo racing (yes its their oil) says the 0W20 is only ok for 5000km. But Toyota Europe assumes...
Well it seems that my engine also has way to low oilpressure (just as the other car with 13000km)
Mine is at 2.3-2.5bar on a cold engine.
While even on a hot engine, it should still be at 2.8-3.2bar.
Report will be send to Toyota and to be continued.
But I would recommend people to read out...
Small update: Yesterday, an engineer from Toyota Europe called in order for the case that was opened.
They want to have as much data, diagnostics and pictures while dismanteling the engine. To check where which damage has occured.
Toyota Europe also wants to read out the entire ECU and GPS...
Cheapest engine where you can by default... have 500HP (at the engine).
Comes full packaged, only the turbo itself is missing. But oilpan and everything else is included.
Yes 7K excluding taxes. So with the taxes of Belgium included: 8470 euro.
But still, a 'cheap' engine :)
No not the same tuner. All tuners are different, each doing their own tuning and with different tools.
To summarize:
My tuner has my B58 with cyliner 1 without compression
BMW tuner has a B58 with cyliner 3 & 4 without compression
BMW tuner has a B48 with one cyliner without compression
Tuner...
Not a lot, spikes till1.6 bar. And in the higher RPM range the ECU is restricting it currently to 1.2 bar
It occured during normal driving, so the boost was very low.
Also two other BMW engines (one B58 and one B48) since last month confirmed having the same problem with lost compression...
The new engine already arrived, damn that was really fast :)
It was ordered yesterday afternoon, arrived this morning.
If somebody want to know the price that I paid: around 7000 euro excluding taxes (Belgium has 21% taxes)
What was ordered (inlcuding part number):
* Long block B58 supra...
Thanks.
When we know the problem, I will surely let everybody know what it was :)
Same for which parts are going to be in the 'upgraded engine'.
Haha unfortunately the power bug already bit me 7 years ago :p
First priority is to have the supra back on the road and enjoy her for the rest of the...
Thanks. One car in the UK is having the same problem (engine block is not opened up there either to check which component failed).
First guess now is the piston ring that broke. But to be sure, engine block needs to be pulled out and opened up. And finding the root cause, who knows... as the ECU...
Sad news today... my engine blew up this morning :(
I was cruising on the highway and took the exit. While I was taking the exit corner, suddenly the car started vibrating.
First I thought there was something wrong with one of the wheels (I was taking the corner at a high speed). But in the...
Tracks I would/could participate on (just as info):
Belgium Spa-Francorchamps
Belgium Zolder
Netherlands Zandvoort
France Dijon-Prenois
France LeMans
Austria Rebull Ring
Also the higher your speed, the 'colder the air' is (just stick your hand out the window at 50mph or ar 100mph). So fast...
I don't kow how fast the temperatures would recover to a normal level, before you open again the throttle on a track.
Can't see that the temperatures lower that much in 2-3 seconds. Cause after that timing, you are again on 100% throttle.
Maybe good on a dragstrip, but I can't see the...
Yes they have a high-torque at a low-rpm range, which is great for daily driving.
Very quick at the lights, you don't need to floor the car to get it moving really fast :D
