Super excited to get my 8HP70 installed in my Ford Ranger! Thank you for sharing this! I’ve watched part 1 and I’ve set a reminder to watch part 2 in the morning! Also, do you have any MTS merch available?
nice vid man keen to find out where you got your hoists from particularly the car stackers NOTE have 8hp box in the Jeep was told by ZF Engineering tech to get the box perfectly level when filling i went of the flange the pan bolts too, in the jeep it means having the back of the car way up in the air
Nice man thanks for the info on the oil install. Yea the hoist is a HAPP branded 4post. Happ.com.Au And let them know you seen it on my channel and they should look after you on pricing.
Hey Phillip I see that the oil pan hangs below the chassis rails, is that the case or is just the videos perspective? And wouldn’t it hanging too low bash with pebbles and rocks along the road?
Hi mate. Yea the gearbox does hang a bit low. Not a problem for me as I don’t run a low car. I’ll show the exact position in the next video for anyone wondering.
hi mate. im doing an LS swap and have enquired about getting a 8hp70 for it. ive been told that was be fine. but the engine is 730nm looking for a second opinion. thanks
Hey mate. I’m running 820nm reported at the gearbox input shaft, on the TCU software. I’m comfortable to increase the power. I’ve been talking with the TCU company over in Europe and they believe 1200nm is the danger zone.
Bit of a difficult question without knowing more about the setup. But normally, 1200nm max is what some people get to. That’s input shaft power, so flywheel power. How the power curve is tuned on the Dyno will help holding power. A good TCU can adjust clutch pack pressure to max out the gearbox
@@Motorsporttuningsolutions1 I'm ordering a 8,8inch ford diff kit and they recommanded 3.08 or the supra 3.2, but i have no idea what the gears would be like at all
@@joshcarlyle3706It depends on a multitude of factors like engine displacement, boost threshold, torque, and other general characteristics of your car. Assuming you have a 2JZ and aren't revving too high (7000-7500rpm), you can get away with a 3.08-3.55FD. With a moderately sized, quick spooling turbo, a lower FD will have good acceleration while also helping with traction. But if grip is not an issue then the higher ratio will maximize your performance. If you're going for a broad high revving powerband (8500-9000rpm), look towards a 3.9-4.11FD. A high revving, broad powerband engine with a low FD ratio is essentially the embodiment of Sisyphus; getting up to that 9K just to drop back down to 5K after shifting. Average RPM per gear also increases with a higher ratio FD so this may affect NVH or fuel economy. I think 3.08 would be a good starting point with a good balance, 4.11 may blow the tires off in first, second, and even third gear. This is just my advice though, be sure to do your own due diligence
Damn, this is exactly the missing link video for anyone who wants this swap, instant SUB!
Haha thanks mate

Yep he is Top Notch mate.
Sick buuld im looking to doing this 8hp into my s14 rb26...keen on more eletrical techy talk and tuning...ty mate for awesome content
Cheers mate. Yea the electrical side is on its way 🤙
I would watch a 10+ part, movie length video series on this build…if you have the footage, please release whatever you have
Haha ill see what I can do
interest spot for the cooler
Yea it works a treat! Tried and tested setup
Hello Mate, have guys thought about getting this kit for the VQ35DE RWD or AWD?
Anything can be adapted. Just need a customer wanting to do it
Awesome info. In the middle of fitting one into a mx83 and was wondering what can be shaved off as I have bashed the tunnel within a mm of its life...
Nice! If you watch the 1st part of the install video series, I show what I cut off on the box.
I've been waiting for this one! So sick mate
Cheers mate

Wicked vid,very informative!!
Def one to ponder over for the GTR!!!
Yea would be absolutely amazing in a GTR
Doesn’t the trans ecu need to be tuned before you could back it in and out to circulate the fluid?
The TCU and ECU where all tuned prior to the "test drive" video
Happy new Year Mate.
You too brother
Hey sick build! Just wondering what radiator hose you used for the lower water outlet to engine?
Yea the stock style jz lower radiator hose

this vid what i need,tq broo
No worries mate. Hope it helps. Wiring/electrical video coming soon
Wondering what the cost would be fully done and running?
If you contact Charles from track industry, he can price it up for you
What year, make, model did the trans come out of; is that an 8hp70 or a smaller rated 8hp?
Yes 8hp70x gearbox. X being a 4wd style
Did you mention what engine that transmission came off of
x5 awd
How much is the price to swap 4x4 to 2w the plate
not sure mate
Where did you end up getting your driveshaft made? Local shop? Also approximate cost. Cheers
Yea from John at Gold Coast tail shafts. Mention Phil from Motorsport Tuning solutions and he will look after you.
@PhilipYoungsmith Thanks mate. Much appreciated.
All gravy baby
I want to put an 8 hp into my 1980 VC commodore with an LS1 in it get rid of my turbo 400 it puts out around 400 hp any suggestions
Do it mate, it’s worth the mission!

@@Motorsporttuningsolutions1 thanks heaps mate appreciate it
Not a problem mate
hey mate would you know by chance if the turbolamik computer would support a 8hp76 is there much difference ?
How much can these transmission hold?
Bit of a difficult question without knowing more about the setup. But normally, 1200nm max is what some people get to. That’s input shaft power, so flywheel power.
How the power curve is tuned on the Dyno will help holding power. A good TCU can adjust clutch pack pressure to max out the gearbox
How much did it cost for everything?
Give @trackindustries a message mate. He has all prices
Curious what controller you gonna use for the 8hp
I’m running the TurboLamik. Next video will explain everything
@@Motorsporttuningsolutions1 can’t wait
Waiting for new video
It’s coming mate
Can I swap this transmission into an Audi RS4 B7 generation?
You can swap any gearbox in any car with the correct adaptors and mods
Why not dq500?, can handle the same power
I’m not too familiar with that gearbox tbh
Audi is going to be a bit tough as it uses a transaxle in the front.
What diff ratio do you recommend with the 2jz and zf8?
Man it really just depends on the use of the car. Im still on the 4.08-4.11 ratios. im going to try the 3.7 soon so will have some feedback
@@Motorsporttuningsolutions1 I'm ordering a 8,8inch ford diff kit and they recommanded 3.08 or the supra 3.2, but i have no idea what the gears would be like at all
@@Motorsporttuningsolutions1whats the driving experience like with the 4.08/4.1? Too short?

Yea so I would prob get the 3.2 if I was you. I’m running the 3.7 atm but if you are aiming for above 800hp, the lower ratio will serve you better
Yea.... gimme 20 seconds hahahahahaha
