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.

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
