Alpha ETK 800 ZF BMW 6HP/8HP Inspired Transmissions 0.4

Besides my other mods that made the ETK 800 look better this mod makes it feel better to drive too.
!! I recommend reading the red text for info about using the mod correctly !!​

The mod is active when you select either one of the engines (6 cylinder petrol or diesel with Milendur at the end) and from there it automatically equips the corresponding transmission (8 speed by default).
Next you need to make sure you have the correct final drive which is 2.81 for diesel and 3.23 for petrol. You can find it in Front/Rear Suspension - Front/Rear Differential - Front/Rear Final Drive (depending on if you have RWD or AWD).
If you want to use 270 NA ECU on the petrol engine you need to change intake to Stock Intake and change transmission shift map to Stock NA because this ECU has lower rpm redline and the transmission fails to shift up otherwise. Launch control is only available on 8 speed tranmissions and is activated when holding throttle and brake with safety systems turned off and transmission in sport mode.

My idea was to make the driving more pleasant and realistic while bringing it closer to BMW and ZF's 6 and 8 speed autos. Vanilla transmissions were always lacking and i couldn't find a mod that fixed 100% of the issues so i made my own. In contrast to other mods these transmissions are tuned to work optimally with sporty driving and full throttle as well as calm driving with low throttle so using pedals is highly recommended.
Also compliments my ETK 800 Improved Gauge Cluster mod very nice.
Try it out and see if you like it and if you have any ideas or suggestions.

TODO:

• add ttSport and Rennspecht engines and transmissions
