I wonder how a BMW b58 would go
We’ll be finding out soon enough 😎
The work they do is art like. I can’t help seeing the irony in all off this though. You have a British company, a quintessentially British vehicle and a picture of Winston Churchill up on the wall. And the best engine for you is a German one. 😂
Love it.
Couldn’t agree more
Like the music less noise good show. Just completed my home workshop in Sweden. Cant wait to get stuck into my own landy and hoping for a M57 conversion would be a dream and also bought a ticket for the 130
Thanks Paul. I think we’re going 50:50 music workshop sounds to keep everyone happy
All looking great over there, can’t wait to get mine into the shop 👍🏻😀🏴
We’re ready and waiting for you Murray
Another great video Dave and Team always delivering when I'm needing something to watch keep up the great work Project Rodent is gonna be spicey🙂
Thanks so much. Yeah Rodent is getting done sweet upgrades
Totally agree about straight six engines, easily the best overall
The TIG Welding on that tunnel is next level. Outstanding.
Awesome isn’t it
Your 'Outstanding' falls far short of most peoples, it looks just about passible, give him some credit he may have a bad arm, but the welds are not 'Outstanding'
@@Taz6688 A praise critic?? FO mate, I'd be very happy!
@@sf017s4 It's adequate and does the job, but outstanding no, if you are happy to weld like that good, but once you start you will improve and the welds will look like stacks of dimes, I am not being hard on the standard of welding, have a look around the welding channels, you can see the standards they reach, the more you do the better you get.
I could just keep watching this all day long great episode as always lads 👌👏
There’s 76 Mahker Land Rover Defender vlog episodes to keep you interested
M47D20TU2 (M57 - 2 cylinders) solid engine, had it remapped at 300lb-ft 45K now on 150+K miles with just an uprated FMIC to keep the temps down (cylinder + EGTs). Needed a new turbo at 110K miles and four new injectors. Whilst I do a bit of off-roading in summer it's usually on asphalt at Brands Hatch:-)
Great video Dave. Please keep up the awesome work. Cheers buddy 👍🤙
Thanks Brian
Absolutely unreal work shop and team 👏
Thanks so much 🙏
I was never a fan of this car but you guys made it to be my dream build, we have them here in S.A , im starting to save for it
It's an icon along with the Beetle/911
For those still wondering.
A straight six is the smoothest configuration for an engine this side of a V12. ( A V12 is only two straight sixes together.)
Agreed 😍
@@wearemahker I am obsessed with straight sixes!
@Dave - I’m in for SCRAM Africa 2023, if you’re in for prepping the Wolf? (I’ll give that old Tithonus a run for it’s money), @Tom you sir are a welding god - loving the custom foot rests, so needed in a Defender - 😂 Aries is beautiful but that engine is pants…should’ve talked him into one of your Dad’s 300 TDi engines Dave, they’re thee very best !
Just back from a trip to Morocco in my TD5 camper, 4500 miles in 14 days including 6 x 8 hour driving days just getting to the port and back, TD5 ran absolutely perfectly the whole time, no issues at all, Land Rovers can be reliable but damn it needs more power, I need to look at a remap or win the lottery and get an M57 swap.
A simple remap completely transforms a td5.
Loving the music
Thank you, we updated the tracks this week for some variety
Congratulations for 30000 sub
That Porsche Green 90 is looking spicy🌶🌶🌶
Awesome isn’t it
I will order the custom tunnel cover soon, keep the drawings
We plan to draw them
What gearbox is are you using on the m57 R380 or BMW auto or manual
What sound deadening mats are you using in the 90?
3:16 She's loving those welds
Tig weld heaven
hey there,
I am wondering how you manage to make your gearboxes handle all that power reliably.
Greetings, booba
Make sure them fan mounts on the rads don’t rub on it in the desert. Mine did back in 2008 after being assured it would be fine by the fan company but it killed the rad. 4000 miles, but limped home through Spain and France.
We give a 5mm expansion air Gap
🔥🤩🔥🤩🔥🤩 outstanding 👌🏻👍🏻
Thanks Phil
Epic!
🔥🔥🔥
As an African what you call your vpower diesel is our standard diesel. That's how dirty it is 😊
A lot of work, fair play to you, a lot more than coilovers, bushes, a bit of extra cooling, limited slip diff, braided brake-lines, brake pads and tyres...
WANT WANT WANT!!
Nnnice! :) what sort of age 90 or 110 is good to convert etc. the etc meaning going to town on it. Is there an age that’s just a little.. too old?
Ive had my 2.2 TDCi remapped, suddenly "Duggie" is a nice zippy Defender with loads of low end torque and lotsa engine snap
I hope you guys come out with a M57 kit in the next couple months! I would purchase one.!!! Keep up the good work
We do sir £19,000 plus vat
@@wearemahker that's good to know!!! I will send you an email for more information.
but for anyone else who is interested in the m57 kit what does this kit come with electrics,engine,adapator plate, gear box,.. etc maybe this could be part of a ASK DAVE segment?
cool!
Whats the price for a fully fitted bmw engine please
would a range rover sport accept one of these engines (SDV6 3Ltr).
Interesting, Ineos chose the same engine?
is it possible to fit one of these engines and the auto box into a 1971 range rover
What about the B57?
In the UK the insurance will be astronomical!
Let’s not think about that bit!
In the 1990s When BMW owned Landrover Defenders in South Africa had a 2.8 liter BMW engine from the factory.
They knew the right way
Would love to own one of those, but...🤑
Pity about the 3 litre in the Discovery
What manual transmission would you mate with the M57? I can't imagine an R380 or LT77 would handle the torque of the M57, especially tuned.
The transmission it came with from the factory - the ZF S6-53DZ
WHAT ISUZU ENGINE IN DISCOVER 1 REPLACE MOTOR
FROM AUSTRALIA
Poor Gareth, been there, done that, twice. 😢
Can you fit a m57 bmw engine in a iveco daily 70c17 lwb 3.0 Chris
We love a challenge. Email Dave on info@mahker.com please
Is it a better engine that the 3.0 straight six Ingenium?
Or the Mercedes OM606
If the shoe fits, then okay....?
The Defender has been 'Mechano and Lego' for so many years, for so many people , why not you?
The guys, in the shop, that do the work are top level.
25 year old rig... Drive in the desert.. Bucket list!
Get involved. Scram Africa 2023
What pops into my head immediately is … how much do you charge for this type of conversion..? 🧐
Greetings from Germany everybody 👋
Everything is bespoke because there are a lot of variables
@@wearemahker
Give me a ROUGH estimate..!?
@@erhardt1477 you would be better off supplying a list e.g. will you supply the engine or do Mahker have to source the engine, when swapping out an engine you might as well do all the preventative maintenance i.e. change all the consumables on the engine, you also should install new turbos or at least reconditioned ones. New turbos on a L322 will cost you £7000 alone parts and labour. This will be at least a 4 week project by the time the engine is removed, rebuilt and all the parts posted out AND are you using brand new parts or reconditioning the turbos for example? are you preppared to pay for OEM parts or are you looking to use Chinese parts? There is no point in him swapping the engine for you only for the turbos to fail a month later and you be hit with another £5000 bill so as a minumum you need to articulate whether you are looking for a full rebuild with new everything parts wise, how old an engine you are willing to accept and how much servcing and preventative mantenance you are willing to undertake. Is this an oppurtune time to refesh the suspension, install new fuel pumps, water pumps, thermostats, starter motors and a whole host of consumables?
How's that, some kind words about the 2.2.
Sometimes we can be nice about them
Great video guys 👍
Why the engine swap for rodent ?
Rob just fancied an upgrade and we agreed. It’s gonna be good for the long miles on the big trips
How does the Mercedes OM606 compare to the BMW M57?
I’ll get Dave to answer this in the next Q and A for you in detail
Hi , am looking to rebuild a defender 90 , I live in Uganda and would appreciate you support in supplying parts and remote assistance ( paid for of-course) during the rebuild. How can I contact you or your workshop
Standard fitment from the factory in South Africa
Really?
@@thegreatsihle yes.
Is it ulez 😊
Is that the same as a Range Rover td6
Hi. What type of costs are we looking at for you to supply and fit a M57 engine to a 90 please reg NickCoates
Prices vary depending on spec £25k plus vat for a full recon install or £15k for a used install
OM60X is the correct engine to fit 😊
most people only know about egypt or dubai Sir
All these modifications look expensive, too expensive for the average owner. Also, if the vehicle breaks down in Africa, will it be easy for a local mechanic to fix?
Of course! We make these vehicles better than the originals.
Great engine, that's why i'm sticking one in a MK11 1964 Jag ha ha ha the purists gonna hate me...
Yay fit rusty Bollocks with Bollocks that blows up ! i have worked with both BMW and Landrover and this is not a good combination , great engineering skills though guys ! howerver your just making what failled fast do it quicker and more expencive to fix .
great job .
waist of time .
buy a toyota Hilux or a Nissan Patrol if you want to mount a gun on it or just go off road or go to the shops
Love the topic but can we keep it succinct to the topic at hand and not have fancy music going on for ages looking at nothing to do with why you prefer m57
Of course. Just for you we'll change that. You just need to catch up now and watch the next 52 episodes we've made since this video!
Touchy.
@bcbchesney nah just having a bit of fun with you. We realised over Christmas our videos had a lot of content in them but had to limit the title and thumbnail had to be specific to try and work the algorithm to get attention. Slowly we’ve morphed into making more videos from the sane single shoot day so that each are around one topic rather than everything that’s going on in the workshop that week. We’re still learning
Why? Because they are on commission for all the spare parts needed.
Why you like BMW engines..Because you'll muppets. 🤣🤣 joke. . I like the Isuzu diesel and the the Cummins 4b and 6b engine. They just don't stop.
Our client wants to enjoy his trip and doesn’t want to sound like a freight train
@@wearemahker iya. I hear you. All good. Still love the Cummins. They quiet with the standard exhaust. The Isuzu is very quiet. Love your channel. Just winding you up .
Dirty African fuel??That's so wrong
Why? It happened on our Africa trip, some of the remote fuel stations had contaminated fuel
African fuel???? 😂😂 what’s that?
It’s make from rhino fat..😁😁
DUM DUM bmw products wil just last the warrenty period it is al plastic fantastic. Better use an mercedes toyota or an cummens diesel engine they wil last, i drive an mercedes g wagon from 1982 with the same drive train.
Hahaha 😂 this is levels above your old shit in terms of power and refinement
They don't leak as much oil 🤣🤣as a normal land Rover funny thing German engine running a British van lol and why do you say Africa has dirty fuel?
