    Some behind the scenes on our development for intergrating the TurboLamik TCU to work with the 1HD-FTE. Its taken a bit longer than antcipated but we have a really nice solution to getting an 8 speed behind one of these now.

    Awesome news, have been waiting patiently for news on the 1HD conversion. Picked up a BMW 8HP70X and Shifter 6 months ago in preparation for 80 Series 8HP swap. Happy to hear your focus to DIY install for this kit. Keep up the good work. Edit: Also looking forward to some fit up B roll on the next one for engine / flex plate and transfer adapters. Was able find a FTE flex plate assembly for nix.

    Doing gods work! No need for crawler gears, changing diff ratios or oem converter lockup kits with an 8HP. Heaps of value in the conversion. This will be phenomenal behind a 2UZ but with manual ECUs pretty much non existent would likely need to go aftermarket. keep up the good work!

    • @ZeroTo60Tube
      @ZeroTo60Tube  Před 7 měsíci +3

      Around 70-80 is a great temp to really lean or abuse a 8hp. For normal use anything under 110 is fine.
      Cold oil or variation in temp leads to inconsistent clutch bite, which makes it harder for the controller to maintain a smooth feel.

    Hi mate, Happy New Year from sunny Scotland. I own both a N54 335i and a 2003 5.3 Silverado and would like 8HP70/75 one of them. Now I know it would work in the E92, but it's the truck im wondering about. It's currently got a big cam fitted, which requires a 2800rpm converter. How would this work with the 8HP? Any info would be awesome and greatly appreciated.

    • @ZeroTo60Tube
      @ZeroTo60Tube  Před 6 měsíci +1

      The converter in the 8hp is electronically assisted. You will be able to spin even the diesel converters to over 3500rpm on the transbrake for launches. For normal driving you will want the converter to lock up alot earlier than 2800rpm. The brillaint thing about the turbo lamik is being able to program all the conditions and points for converter lock up. In short, it wont be a problem.

    Have you only tried the setup for only a g turbo ecu controller? A lot have a unichip (myself included) would this kit work with a unichip? Just wondering how you go with shifting, can you make the ecu drop power for the shift. Or does the 8 speed not need the throttle drop on gear changes to protect the gearbox?

    • @ZeroTo60Tube
      @ZeroTo60Tube  Před 7 měsíci +2

      We need to know what the engine is doing. So the unichip or GTurbo makes no difference. We connect to sensors on the motor itself.
      Torque reduction during shifts isn’t needed under 900nm. There is no way to do it effectively with these ecus or unichips. They react too slow. So if you are over that 900nm an upgraded box is recommended. However we have VDJs on the road abusing stock used transmissions at 1200nm with no issues yet.

    • @matthewclements4932
      @matthewclements4932 Před 7 měsíci

      Thx for the reply, mine only has 690 nm at the wheels so should be good then. Would the sensors be the same from 2001-2006 as I think 2003 they did a facelift and changed a few things.

    • @ZeroTo60Tube
      @ZeroTo60Tube  Před 7 měsíci +1

      That is the sort of thing we will find out over time. Good chance they are the same. But until its done and confirmed specific we dont know. Depending on boost levels you may get away with using the factory map sensor. But we will likely recomend an aftermarket one for the simplicity of the calibration.@@matthewclements4932

      It optimises the engine tq making it to the wheels.
      While motors will have a large tq band. Say peak tq from 1900-3300rpm, however it’s only a few hundred rpm where that tq is efficient. Keeping the engine close to its optimal efficiency makes a massive difference not only in consumption but acceleration as well.
      On paper a constant variable transmission should be the best for this. However in reality cvt transmissions are very weak and also the lacklustre driving experience has almost made them obsolete for everything except full on economy boxes.
      The 8hp in particular can shift almost cvt like or like full race sequential transmission. It gives an amazing balance of efficiency and driving feel. It’s why nearly every high end European performance car has this transmission.

      There are a few shops doing 8 speeds in Australia, using very different methods to ourselves. It's hard, we are all pioneering the conversions at the moment and learning about potencial issues or complications. We are lucky, we were the first and have a lot more experience, but i dont want to point fingers, because every one has start somewhere. Even we are learning ways to improve on a monthly basis.

    The 8 speed conversion would be ace for earlier VE LS cars. I remember how bad the shifts were and it wasn't really fixed till VF-VFII. Having 8 speed and throttle blip downshift in VEs V8 would completely change those cars.

      I have an LC200 and can't wait untill an 8speed conversion is available for it. I fucking hate, with all of my body, the shit show that is the LC200 auto box. It fucks around trying to find the correct gear for no reason, it never locks up, yes you can get a lockup kit, but still, only shitty situations where it will actually lock.
      I would gladly pay the money to fuck it off and have something that will let me get power to the ground, save fuel and be bullet proof.

      The manuals are fairly weak in these, slow to use and just not and smooth or exciting to drive as a modern auto. Its hard to get your head around what you can do with these 8hp. You can make them shift like racing transmission, or smooth like a rolls royce.

      Ahhh fair enough, yeah i guess these are not used as off road crawlers mainly. People use them to travel australia in. Journeys doing thousands of klms, where the smooth nice auto makes a lot of sense. Helps with towing, the hills and keeping the engine in its power band. Mind you the 8 gear ratios and torque converter make the slow off road stuff much easier as well. You should have a go in one when you can. @@chippyjohn1

      Yeah, i mean i get that the numbers sound astronomical. But when you have this sort of power available uphill over taking when towing is much safer. Much easier to maintain momentum going up hill in soft sand. You dont need it, but it makes life easier. And when you do want to have a play, it makes it a lot more exciting.
