    @@imwalking1690 unfortunately our transfer case adapter wont work with the Jeep boxes. We are using the BMW boxes. Mainly due to supply, but also due to them being in the M50d x5 which with a sligh tune pretty much walk away from most things on the road. Being made for such a powerful OEM diesel application seemed a no brainer. However on the same note with this controller the converter is less cruicial. Main reason people play with conveters and this controller is for transbrake launches, when people are trying to launch above 4000rpm. But we can actually start from a standstill with the converter locked. And even on a gentle start, where you want to slip the converter we lock it up pretty quickly.

This Lamik controller initially supported 6hp, however about 5 years ago they decided to stop supporting them. Reason being its madness to use a 6hp in a swap when the 8hp exists. The difference in price bewteen the two is quite insignificant.

    Would the torque converter be able to be fully locked? What trans cooler setup are you going to be running?

  • @ZeroTo60Tube

    @ZeroTo60Tube

    Жыл бұрын

    Yeah, we lock the converters very quickly. In fact if you start in first gear, the converter is locked from the get go and we use the clutches to get the vehicle moving. The converter is used for second gear starts (which is most of the time), coming to a stop and transbrake launches. As the converter very rarely slips the majority of heat is radiating from the motor. Not the box itself. In the drift car when we use this with a clutch pedal and continally slip the clutches in the transmission for clutch kits (the worst thing you can do to the box) we rarely see temps of 80deg. We will use a front mounted cooler on mac's car. Howeever we may also look at other typs of coolers down the track. Some 79 series applications, will have issues where they can't get the box hot enough. Which i know sounds insance when you come from the Toyota automatic world which is the opposite.

    Can it be programmed to lock out first gear unless manually selected? ie, only need first gear for off-road, not for street. In low-range 4x4 need to be able to select any gear, ie, if want to start in low-range 5th for example? What shifter has to be used? I understand shifting is fully electronic, including Park pawl.

    This controller has 8 different program modes to control start gear. Shifts points. Converter behaviour etc. it’s very customisable in the back end. But our intention is to have them leave with modes to suit their intended application. It currently works with a basic switch style shifter, or BMW canbus shifter if you want an oem style shifter. We are looking in to adding different shifters. Everyone likes their own touch, so we want more options.

    Wow, this is something I thought of many years ago after having a company car with this gearbox then stepping into a 200 series with its 6sp. I asked around a few places to see if it could be done and no one interested - mainly due to the size difference but also the electronics behind it. Best of luck, I'll be following closely.

    Will that box hold 1000nm of torque constant for a few minutes?

  • @ZeroTo60Tube

    @ZeroTo60Tube

    Жыл бұрын

    So it’s the gear changes that cause clutch slip. In fact it’s trying to upshift while pushing all the power through the box for a flat shift that can lead to slip. (Oem applications do not flat shift, but we like to) Once you are in gear and everything rotating it doesn’t stress it. So 1000nm in gear like on the beach or something, for 10mins it won’t even get hot. But if you change gear every 2-3 seconds it will. The 8hp is a brilliant piece of engineering.
