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.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
