Making an Automatic Supra Behave like a Manual!

The HTG guys are in town to make magic happen with my 2020 Supra! Every $5 you spend on lzmfg.com or www.drifthq.com gets you entered for a chance to win out MK4 Supra and $20,000 CASH!

He’s basically hacking cars. Think about that for a sec.

[@assaulttheasphalt6638]

I read that as polish

[@leafpv4569]

I was trained by a couple of Polish guys called yan and yovo, taught me alot about vag cars, these guys remind me of there jaw dropping knowledge!

[@KeijoMetsalu]

Adam taking it to the next level by bringing in Eastern European Drifting Engineers. Good stuff!

[@konigvonpreuen8065]

With the CAN controlled diff, you could choose to make it act like an open diff, 1.0 way lsd, 1.5 way lsd, 2 way lsd, or spool. All with the touch of a button. That's pretty dang sweet!

[@cutegamerboy]

This is would be huge for both manual and automatic owners too!

[@bennyb.1742]

That would really depend on how the diff locks up mechanically. Such things have existed in offroad for a long time, and it doesn't really work like that.

[@_entrxpy]

The dynamic characteristics are totally different from a true mechanical LSD though. It’s not the same

[@dinocrest1946]

@@_entrxpy it is a true mechanical LSD

[@_entrxpy]

@@dinocrest1946 it would be an e-diff, completely different thing.

[@nortonsgarage596]

Definitely a 265 on the fronts. I’d use the white on the giveaway and use the grey in your personal supra!

[@keecamp3706]

That’s a good idea

[@braev818]

Black rims looks better

[@braev818]

Them saying use white on give away means they want you to have the better looking rims. No if your asking us what looks better then we all thing black but he only says white so your personal supra can get them. No black for give away and buy another set of black rims

[@dlmperformanceandracing]

@@braev818 exactly, I guess most people realize the odds of winning the car are close to that of a small country's lottery, so would get more enjoyment out of seeing Adam's car with the nice wheels than the giveaway car.

[@yota8325]

​@@braev818 white looks best not everyone likes black wheels

[@bled]

The diamond black looks so sleek , compared to the white, the stickers do pop out more tho which is a nice touch. The red details on the diamond black go with the red on the supra calipers which is a very nice compliment, idk Adam its a very tough decision but imo the white is like JDM certified, ITS TOUGHH.

[@norbefilms]

Yeah baby! HTG and manual automatic! ❤

[@tristenbryenton3056]

almost had a heart attack when buddy cut all the connections in the TCM, has to be a better way to communicate through the Can network but props to buddy for having the balls to send that the first time he did it ahahaha

[@mike8818]

He said he has done bmw's so it wasn't his first time.

[@Joebobinator]

They are just cutting out the old unit and soldering in their own. Only slightly more complicated than replacing a CPU in a computer. I'm assuming they will sell plug and play units to normal customers and do all this work in-house

[@zane260]

He knows more than you buddy

[@braev818]

Black rims

[@kazern95]

he has been doing these for fucking ages lmao 8hp has been the go to conversion for months

[@fatninja987]

Me: if only one day I could own a Supra. Adam: so right now I am building 4 supras at the same time

[@KurtK207E92]

They both look good, I think the diamond black look a lil better just cause they match the front lip

[@cbdoney]

Polish Johan is a treat to witness, what a knowledgeable dude!

[@13Tyres]

Pohan

[@ThatHoodlum19]

I like the chilled European fellas, so calming listen to them explain the process :)

[@cutegamerboy]

I guess all the oversimplifications of the process had me excited for this, seems like it’s still a very intensive and laborious process

[@DylanMilby]

It seems easier to put a legitimate manual transmission than this

[@hesisportscards7699]

Yeah I was kinda considering buying an A90 with this idea in mind, but all of the cutting and soldering makes it seem like it'd be better off just getting a manual supra in the first place 🤷🏽‍♂

[@Thomas-gf2ql]

Knowing adam, he'll likely find out how to make the process much easier and plug/play. When he brings it to market, i doubt itll require as much finicking as we saw in the vid (at least i hope!)

[@munkysthrowpoop]

@@hesisportscards7699 I'm not sure the final product would involve cutting open the TCU like he did in Adam's car. The best indicator would be look at their solutions for BMWs. At the very least it would involve dropping the pan and installing an already modified TCU or a custom one. This looks more like they are prototyping at the moment beings that it is the first iteration.

[@666gato]

Product development isn't simple and easy .

[@profenick4016]

Taking manual mode to a whole mother level 😂

[@MikePruszkowski]

Been waiting for this one! Shoutout HTG!! 🇵🇱

[@codyprice7890]

I absolutely loved the crew interacting with new adam😂😂

[@Thatvqkid]

I like the diamond black more, it compliments the blue more and the white pops to much and the black is more suttle

[@elefras93able]

Blue on white wheels looks perfect can’t go wrong with it

[@liamhoffman]

These bots aren't even trying anymore

[@liamhoffman]

The blue stickers on them pop and match the car

[@MitchTube]

I’ve seen an Aussie KZbin channel 0-60 do this mod to an M3. Worked great!

[@Jackm117]

Him calling it "BMW Supra" made my day

[@TullysGoneFishing]

Man this is gonna be such a dope build!!

[@riddlemethis01]

Awesome video seeing people pushing limits and developing things is awesome

[@sleepervdub]

as a technician seeing someone take a grinder to the tcm was scary

[@mxb2432]

Bro even as a cucumber gardener this seemed sketchy af. But Polish Adam seems to know what he's doing! 🤘🏼

[@dodge360dart]

I got my mk5 8hp51 transmission running in my bmw e60 a few weeks back! Turbo lamik works the magic, just fine tuning her up now for track day!

[@leroy475]

Keep up the grind Adam love the videos great content hope you’re doing good much love n respect

[@xkelsonzipx]

white wheels look clean on the blue supra

[@andrewb7057]

Glad to see adam doing some RND work with the knowledge he has after so many builds i knew he could come up with some wild stuff

[@ericturnbull9780]

damn !!! . . . .the artwork around the compound is looking super sick

[@Ryangarrow26]

You could always take different gauge springs and attach iT to the pedal and the other end make a tab to hook the spring then as you push the pedal it will tension the spring You could literally take multiple springs and find which clutch pressure works for you

[@Eurofamily01]

the white looks amazing with the blue

[@25thAnnv]

The diamond black is perfect! White is nice, but I have seen those often on blue Supras and GTR's. The black still has metallic and is beautiful, but in a slightly understated way

[@jbestgaming136]

Just got my 10yr anniversary package last night so happy about everything that came with it. And happy to have 20 entries for the Supra

[@thesigmaenigma9102]

Hey like you said last time, gotta do the R before you get the D. This project is awesome, can't wait until you guys have it all figured out.

[@senditsentit]

I Guess u could put a tension spring setup on the back of clutch pedal to make it feel like a real clutch

[@cristianbello4621]

Absolutely awesome stuff and definitely a step for the automotive community seeing new technology get developed

[@TheBrownbear68]

the new trans sounds wild on the tech side. Amazing job from HTG. also ive got to say 265 on the front and RSP with white TE's is my choice. cant go wrong with that color combo 🔥

[@mikathefeer5568]

keep up the good work Adam

[@TheWoebegoneJackal]

I'm so fricken excited for this kit! My Supra is my autocross car so I prefer the paddles on it, but I do miss all the fun you can have playing with a third peddle. Definitely getting this 👌

[@von...]

The auto is objectively faster for circuit & auto-x, & when this is a cohesive package setup I think it will solidify itself as the 100% best all-around setup to have for a supra. Making ~600hp on a super responsive turbo setup & it'll literally be able to do anything. I am soooo excited to see where this takes things & I am so glad that things took a complete turn around from the disappointment we all felt at launch seeing Supras only available in 8-speed auto.

[@thisisagreencar7160]

it retains the paddles, you don’t need the clutch to shift or get going. the clutch only works to disengage the clutch for clutch kicks and ebrake pulls

[@schof1014]

This entire Jawn is absolutely Legendary ! Cheers to you all

[@sdugasjr]

White is definitely the way to go. The blue on the stickers gives it some kind of contrast as well. Looks good either way tho

[@mitchfoster9724]

Seeing the other option TJ had, I understand why he went with the A91

[@captain_gamingz9968]

yeah that's why TJ chose that option since a official manual would be simpler.

[@Tayota_93]

LETTSS GOOOOOOOO

[@elesinalex]

Those guys are cool. Making their own transmission controller and software to turn automatic into manual is impressive

[@austincreelman6343]

Supras my dream car way too really give it a new feel and driving experience would love too shake your hand someday hope your loving our sunshine state so far keep up the good content 👍👍👍

[@jeffh7285]

Hilarious... So it is like neutral dropping the car? Yes, So the car can take it? Apparently?!!!?? The part that scares me is the longevity of the clutches especially since you won't be driving it lightly. I am impressed at the R&D put in to accomplish this. As for the give-a-way car: Black Diamond Wheels!!! More of the gentleman/sleeper look.

[@kcj0k3rgaming41]

Those white wheels look great! But the blacks are more like subtle! the Black TE's! Love the content and can't wait to see more!

Idk I guess both wheels are too good. But the white makes the blue pop more

[@MichaelSmith-jv7zm]

Unless you are talking about a Chinese spy balloon, using the word pop is so 15 years ago. It died with the occ days 👀

[@kw2519]

I’ve been wanting to do this to an EV for years. Basically put an extra pedal and shifter from a race sim in a EV and then program it to act like a manual

[@1badpiter458]

That would be sick

[@kw2519]

@@1badpiter458 right? I don’t feel like it would be that hard. But also very difficult lol 😂 Depends on whether you tried doing it to a Tesla or if you built your own EV swapped car. Also thought about jsut replacing the gas engine with an electric motor, keeping the clutch and flywheel. A truly manual EV.

[@iedigoog2805]

that would be sick! any idea how the clutch would function? since it's usually directly attached to the wheel

[@ziggyman77]

All you'd have to do is just do an ev engine swap on a manual. I believe GM is making a kit for this.

[@16york]

I think most EVs have one gear so idk if it’s possible

Black rims on the supra gets my vote, looks so good .
