Engine Reliability
rollazuki:
C'mon guys, the japanese know how to make an engine. There is non better in my opinion.
I agree, you cant beat a big yank v8, for noise/power/evilness etc
but when you see a twin turbo jap engine kicking out the same power, only needing a service every 10k miles.........Japs win every time for me.
Cherry Bomb:
Yank V8 every time.
I don't care how well the japs can build sewing machine motors, anything that can push you along at 70mph all day doing 1500 rpm while sounding like a thunder storm gets my vote.
........but my heart always did rule my head. :twisted:

I chose German as I had a great 3 series e30 that just kept on going. But I was pondering with the japanese as their engines are bulet proof and so much power for little input.
Evilgoat:
Interesting that so many go for japs. Almost daily I hear of broken Evos or Piston eating scoobies :)
Then again we are talking different criteria here :)

Often these are poorly modified engines though or have been thraped to within an inch of their life.
Japanese are generally the most reliable.
