i so regret having missed out on this dyno day.

had a family gathering i had to go to. judging by the photos and everybody's comments in this thread, i shoulda pulled a sickie on the family gathering and gone along to the dyno day to be with my *preferred* family!

nice work will and the boys at boostworx! nice photos too ;)

Come on you R33 Girls... Post your dyno sheets. :)

Yeah! I want to see what torque figures you guys where making out of the RB25's for comparison with my RB20

I'll post mine when i have it on me and a scanner is near by......besides i only got 1 run cos it was leaning out over 5,500, God Damn. I think everyone was having some form of issues on the day!!!!!!

Yeah, allot of people where down on power from what I saw. I think, typically, Boostworx dyno is down a bit compared to others. The dyno room doesn't get good airflow, so the air your car is sucking in isn't the most productive for power, especially on a dyno day where you get lots of cars in and out

Yeah i would agree chris, it was pretty muggy in the workshop compared to outside, my car was also slightly down on power to what it usually runs.

Even though the runs where performed in shootout mode, that cannot factor in the lack of oxygen in the air, its only a air temp correction, so I wasn't surprised that most where down a bit. Its all relative though, as we all ran on the same day in the same conditions, on the same dyno etc

Nice run of yours, bit of a hard act for me to follow straight up afterwards with the ol RB20 :rolleyes:

Keep in mind the torque figures displayed on a chassis dyno are only comparable if the gear they were run in and the diff ratio are identical.

I'm not 100% sure of the gear and diff ratio differences (if any) between R33 and R32s.

I had runs done in 2nd and 3rd gear, and obviously the ones in 2nd gear showed higher torque figures, due to greater torque multiplication.

I think comparing R32/33 runs should be pretty similar, I think there are very minor differances between the two in 4th gear

Chops, can you post your dyno run? I'll do the calcs to compensate for your diff ratio, just so I can compare how the N/A 5.7ltr looks against an rb30det.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
