Ideal Media conducted polls across social media to uncover the most wretched Japanese engines, unveiling the beloved yet flawed Mazda RX8's 13B MSP rotary powerplant. Despite its high-revving excitement, carbon deposits and intense heat woes plague this gem. Mitsubishi's 3000 GT, boasting turbocharged prowess, falters due to unreliable components like timing belt tensioners and fuel injectors. The Subaru WRX STI, a rally-bred marvel, grapples with head gasket and piston ringland failures, tarnishing its performance legacy. Toyota's iconic Supra, powered by the troublesome 7M GTE engine, battles head gasket woes and demanding valve adjustments, testing the loyalty of enthusiasts.
Toyota's 1ZZ-FE engine, a workhorse in various models, grapples with oil consumption and knocking issues, marring its reliability. The supercharged 1MZ-FE engine, enhancing models like the Sienna, faces overheating and sludge build-up nightmares, tarnishing its appeal. The Toyo brw engine, shared among the FR-S, FRS, and BRZ, endures recalls for faulty fuel injector seals and valve springs, leading to misfires and engine failures post-fix. Early models bore the brunt of these issues, while newer iterations offer a reprieve from the engine woes. The video delves into the audience's verdict on the worst JDM engines, shedding light on the common pitfalls of these iconic Japanese powertrains.
