1. Toyota 1JZ/2JZ...
Sports cars sound like the least likely place to find a reliable engine, given that they get driven hard, placing more wear on the motor. But the Mk IV Toyota Supra disproved that with its 2JZ engine and variants thereof. This legendary 3.0-liter inline-six had a cast iron block and an aluminum head and was known to be bulletproof. Tuners have squeezed out close to 1,000 horsepower on stock internals, reliably so, and for those left stock, standard maintenance is all it needs to keep on clocking hundreds of thousands of miles.
The 1JZ also deserves mention - the 2.5-liter version of the JZ inline-six that spanned 17 years. Outputs ranged from just 168 hp in naturally aspirated versions of these motors to thousands in highly tuned and built versions. But in almost all scenarios, the JZ was as bulletproof as they come.
