Hi all,

I realise that this car comes stock with 2 different dif ratios but am wondering if someone with a relatively standard 5 speed manual R33GTST25T can tell me what their tacho sits on at 100kph?

BTW. Found the commodore discussion interesting I own a VL 6 cylinder and can't wait to get behind the wheel of the R33 I'm daydreaming about in 2 months.

After 10 years of driving ill have my first real sports car instead of a family car (Commodore/Falcon) that hates corners - YAY!

Sif any Com/Falc looks better than a nice R32,33,34!

I did conversion on mine. Manual gearbox with auto diff 4.3 ratio, so at 100kph, mine sits at around 2700rpm. An original manual with 4.1 diff should be revving at around 2500+rpm (4% less rev required)

4.39:1 dif ratio dude :rofl:

Notice how good they are when launching ? I converted mine too.. much better.. also we have a better computer which gives us more performance too :)

Also is your speedo out? mine is by about 10ks an hour after 100ks.. Ive got a rev/speed meter (APEXI type 1) which i have tuned to be the right speed.

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
