First Drives in the 8HP50 Swapped N54!

[@R6dude]

These 8HP gearboxes and their mods are mindblowing. So many options

[@FredAllenBurge]

So stoked to get my 8hp + LS + HTG setup wrapped up! This video got me so stoked!

[@nickgerr3097]

DUDES U HAVE A GREAT CHANNEL! NEVER STOP GRINDING! I LOOKED AT HOW MUCH SUBSCRIBERS YOU HAD AND I WAS REALLY SHOCKED, THIS CHANNEL IS MUST TO BE SEEN BY ANY OF BMW ENTHUSIASTS!

[@TreatsOnTheStreets]

So cool to see solutions like this. Would be crazy to pop one of these in a boosted e36.

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

yea it would be fast!

[@owenharvey7965]

Im n54 swapping my e36 and just got a 6 speed manual for it but am selling it for one of these

[@friguy4444]

That Trans pan is suspect. Check out the results from Zero to 60 on his experience with it. It essentially wrecked his 8hp.

[@bigfwopl4873]

"It shifts like it fuckin works!" lololol

[@BEAMERNOOB]

where did you get the drop vent heat extractor from? garagestar?

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

AJ Hartman universal hood vent, 10/10 worth it

[@alpye]

Literally just found your channel, I am putting the 8hp50 In my e36 I need the an fitting for the cooler but I heard the adaptor is a different hole size than the hp70 is this true

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

Yes it is, use the HPR Oil cooler adapter we offer and you'll be set.

[@dcrasta]

No reason not to stick with the factory oil pan for that transmission. No benefit using that URO one.

[@bimmertec]

Great 👍

[@FGNi-em9sb]

Definitely another great option besides DCT. So what’s everything that’s needed to make this plug and play?

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

working on a complete kit

[@twitchkillgod2985]

Zero to sixty does a great breakdown of videos showing you everything

[@twitchkillgod2985]

He shows how to connect it to a halltech ecu or even stock ecu

[@shadyshinichi2JZ]

Whats the max power limits those 8hp50s can hold? No one seems to have a high hp car or anytbing with dyno numbers posted to see if it holds.

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

I make a little over 700 and its been fine with HTG. Other controllers don't offer the same tuning as HTG so they cant hold as much power.

[@shadyshinichi2JZ]

Thank you​@SeemsLegitGarage . Now is that 700rwhp or 700torque?

[@jeffreydobrushin3620]

Anyway you can give a clue where to look with my 335 it’s been down for 3 months and I replaced so many things my codes are : tank vent valve, oil condition sensor, crankshaft sensor, and fuel supply control valve, I replaced hpfp, fuel sensors , fuel pump module , crank sensor twice, check voltage to crank sensor, alternator, starter, battery, and spark plugs I have a really long crank and on cold start car wants to stall really bad and I’m in limp mode and trans failsafe any ideas? I even removed jb4 and retuned with diff tuner and it didn’t do anything

[@xrxixt3034]

Sell that shit😂

[@hunterlafountain6060]

Bro it’s fucked😂

[@jeffreydobrushin3620]

@@xrxixt3034 impossible 😭 maybe if it wasn’t single turbo lol but I need more pulls lol

[@NextLevelAutohaus]

Check fuel pressure regulator, hpfp, hp rail sensor, lp sensor, watch actual fuel pressure numbers, check battery, ibs, and alternator

[@NextLevelAutohaus]

Look for exposed wires or corrosion at ground points

[@southsiden546]

Anyone knows what wheels are on the black e82 please?

yep, sorted now

[@VictorPitstop]

Is this a 1M or did y’all convert a 135?

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

we converted a 135i. Has M3 rear suspension and Ford 8.8 diff

[@davidmitchell5638]

@@SeemsLegitGarage you swapped m3 rear subframe?

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

@@davidmitchell5638 yes

[@VictorPitstop]

@@SeemsLegitGarage so, I literally just got a 135i and I track my cars (just sold my M2 comp to save for a house I’m building/consolidating). I’m realizing I may have made a mistake buying this car until I started watching your videos. I still think it may be a mistake but I can always sell it. What’s the reason why you choose the e82 as your track car? Did you just get money into it and eventually said, whelp, I’m balls deep? Why stop?! Lol (basically wanting you to tell me to run away from this platform)

[@Breakmywalletmedia]

@@VictorPitstop oh man. Hahah Chris has more racing experience than I do, but honestly the maintenance on this platform is something to be wary of, I can still throw 10k more into my car I guess really depends on your goals, but I think the newer platforms are shitting on us

[@Vgk36]

I'm happy with my 330 03 sedan . For daily / track days 8hp would be nice with a turbo m54b30. Still think newer BMW's are too temperamental. And I'm no computer science engineer lol.

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

a 8hp45 would be a easy swap in! can code it so the car doesnt even know

[@Vgk36]

@@SeemsLegitGarage would it be ok for the occasional drift day.

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

@@Vgk36 yes absolutely

[@vertvlogs675]

@@SeemsLegitGarage Do you guys have adapter plates to mount an 8hp on an N52? I know that's probably not a very popular application. But it's going to be a while before I can afford a LS swap for my E90 Track Car. Currently it has the GM 6L45 which works fine for time attack and ok for autocross, but it has no off the shelf tuning options. I would like to be able to clutch kick so I could take the car to drift events, and also set a hard limiter so it doesn't upshift when its being held at redline.

[@tiktikboom9380]

Do you need to change the shifter or can you keep the OEM one?

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

Can use any electronic shifter, no cables

[@chriswashburn9430]

What’s the advantage of this? Drag racing?

[@777bjm]

8hp transmissions are some of the fastest shifting automatics as well as having 2 more gears than the stock 6hp transmission so gear ratios are closer together to stay in boost better

[@chriswashburn9430]

@@777bjm but why not just get a DCT 135i?

[@777bjm]

@@chriswashburn9430 dct is great too but way less cost effective for what youre getting thats why bmw started using automatics again That doesnt even count how much it costs to put upgraded clutches in the dct

[@chriswashburn9430]

@@777bjm ok gotcha.

[@SeemsLegitGarage]

@@chriswashburn9430 8hp is just super fast and efficient at everything it does, and with the HTG control we can still use the clutch pedal, just a virtual one with a potentiometer wired to the pedaal, for clutch kicks and such so there is really no downside just upsides all around. We also can use trans brake which is great,

[@markburkey6371]

Zero to 60 installed a uroparts metal 8hp pan and it indirectly destroyed the clutches. Don't use it!

[@zacharyohare2118]

I want a B58... but N54s still sound sexy AF. And a 135IS is DCT soooo there's that. For the money, hard to beat a 135. If it's B58 it's an X3 lol

[@JupiterLXIX]

Actually all 135i automatics 2012 and 13 are DCT. I think it’s the same one from the Z4 but I may be wrong.
