In my opinion:

- Grime has different drum patterns.
- Dubstep's more minimalistic than Grime.
- Grime doesn't really have bass drops like dubstep does.
- Grime is a lot more aggressive.
- Grime more often than not has emceeing.
- Slight variation in BPM.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

:repost:
Grime is more focussed around MCs, although there are instrumentals, it's essentially the British extension of hiphop (fused with garage and other junglist/electronic influences), so instrumentals are the exception rather than the rule.

Dubstep is more about the instrumentals... generally higher production values, but possibly a little bit less fun... and a LOT less aggy.
