Adam - that's nice average power.

When my R33 was stock I get 145 rwkw with just a zorst & pod.

So 162 with auto is pretty good, I'd say. What is the boost set to ?

What does the seat of your pants say ?? Can you feel the difference ??

Meggala,Yeah I am. I can feel that flat spot but I haven't had a chance to drive it properly yet since the AVC-R went in on friday. Makes me wonder about all these guys with 200 and 250 rwkw though.

Obviously I know that I have an auto and there are power losses there but that was my choice for comfort in Sh!tney traffic.

Here are my first dyno sheets.  Car is an R34 GTT auto with full exhaust and AVC-R boost controller.

 

What do people think?  Is this alright?

looks good adam. with the tiptronic gearbox i think you should be reading slightly higher than manuals because of gear ratios. and i also believe auto/tiptronics have a different ecu....but dont quote me on that :P from memory (i'll have to dig it up) i got 154kw on the same dyno with about the same amount of mods.

1 tip - FMIC. i didnt notice any seat of the pants difference and thus that represented zero bang for dollar!!! for a street car, i think the side mount is perfect for power levels close to 200rwkw. when you do some trackwork or get a bigger turbo then i think this is where a FMIC starts to get important.

spend your money on a handling pack from say whiteline. what are you after? track stuff? street?

3rd gear for me and 4th for you is 1:1 but I'm not sure if this takes into account the diff or not.

I do like the track which is why I thought about getting the FMIC. I'm also leaning towards whiteline for suspension.

I've got to get some decent tyres too.

Robo: Yeah they certainly seemed to wring it's neck on the dyno didn't they. I went to 7k last night when I miss pressed the button to change into 2nd gear. It didn't seem to hit any rev limiter.

Franks: I was going from memory but I think it touched that mark once at Eastern Creek. The rest of the time it stay a little under that even after 15 minutes on the track. It behaves so well. Brakes never fade, never overheats, once got at A/T light to go on but that was at the end of a track session with the last two laps basically being drift laps at Wakefield the other day.

Benm: seems it took 5.5 hours :)

I had a proper drive last night and that flat spot is quite annoying but the rest of it... mmmm... power.

      R33 gtst gearbox top barb

      Absolutely this. Yes, except not vacuum hose. Something oil/fuel safe is a better idea.

      Like a Stagea, but not as cool! Hope you have enough garage space for this, or is something going to leave to make way for it?

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      By PranK · Posted

      The new project has arrived. I have wanted one of these for such a long time, well before that meathead Clarkson drove one in Africa. I really wanted an E34 but I have some medical issues that mean I *really* can't bump my head and the lack of airbags in the E34 made it just too big of a risk.  I don't know why I've always liked these older touring BMW's to be honest, but man I love this car. She's been pretty well maintained for her 243k's with what appears to be only a single oil leak at the oil filter housing gasket. It has a bunch of updates including later model bumper and headlights, 7 series billion-way adjustable seats and it came with a few spares and another set of wheels with legal tyres. I got a unregistered car permit from the RTA and drove it back from Canberra on Saturday.                   First cab off the rank is cleaning it up for blue slip. I dont know how picky they'll be but I figured I'd clean the headlights, fix the oil filter housing gasket, replace the speed sensors (throwing errors) and swap the OE wheels (the M Sport wheels have a big chunk out of one of the tyres.) I also need to replace all 6 gas struts - 2 for bonnet, 2 for hatch and 2 for hatch glass. The car tries to eat me whenever i open any of these. My plan for this car; Ultimately, this is a budget car. I can't afford to throw lots at it and its because I have another car that I got this, if something breaks its no big deal. I will just maintain and repair it really. But eventually I want to do a manual conversion. It actually looks pretty straight forward for E39's and the trickiest part will be sourcing the parts.  I do need to replace some suspension arms or bushes because wow, she's a floaty old girl. She's also fantastically slow. Like really, really slow. When pulling back out on to the freeway on Sat after a quick pull over I needed to wait until no cars were visible before going.  Oh, and the guy I bought it from had a gorgeous R31 GTS-X in the garage.

      Do you have a picture? I assume it is a breather for gearbox oil as it expands, it should have a vacuum line run nice and high in the engine bay (R32 GTR has it on a top bellhousing bolt)

      R33 gtst gearbox top barb

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.
