JoesGTI's MK4 R32...........
« on: October 14, 2010, 10:23:20 am »
                                                                                     :jumpmove: :jumpmove: :jumpmove:

Here is my 'new' .:R32, first impressions are good, low down torque and power is good and it carrys on pulling. Nothing compared to my last beast but with the addition of a super charger  :drool: itl be like a foooookin rocket. I also keep finding myself making excuses to go out for a drive  :rolleye: which i didnt really like doing in my mk5 incase it 'broke'  :grin: Oh and average round town mpg is 19  :signLOL: motorway sat at 70 will do 32mpg.

So things i need to do are;

major service in 200 miles
refurb all alloys (in glossblack or anthracite)
drop 20mm on springs
Blueflame exhaust

Supercharge (next year)

So here are some pics..........

Nice what the full spec? Can see a sunroof.

You won't save much for a house if you plan on superchraging it :laugh:

Wheels don't go gloss black keep it subtle a lighter anthracite colour if any colour change.

Nice car, Joe!  :happy2:

I know DBP is the 'signature' R colour, but I think it lends itself more to being a target for thieves/idiots than black, silver, etc...

BTW, how does a standard R32 feel compared to a standard MKV GTI, in 'everyday' driving - if you remember that far back!?

Anthracite on the refurb, ftw.

i honestly cant remember the mk5 as std, it had a remap and springs in the first week!  :signLOL: It puts the power down instantly, launching at 5k rpm is always going to put a smile on my face!  :driver:

What i will say is that my brief encounter with a CTR has made me realise how bad the golf's handle in comparison.
