Comment below what videos you’d like to see on the GTI
TR Hamza My 8P RS3 would like to race your GTI mate 😉
I have no idea where you go from here other than refitting gti springs on the rear. 20 mins away from done in my book. Have you checked for the insane amount of mud rotting away the ends of the sills under the arches?
Oh i know! Meth injection, will it keep those valves clean?
How about adding a boost gauge?
Track/Street springs and antiroll bars
Just do another POV of u kicking it, love them kind of videos.
Keep it up bro nuff luv my G
Sound bro coming up 🙌🏼
Seconded, would like to see you ripping it like the R32 video 😜
Instantly noticed difference with camera 📷. Much sharper/brighter 👍🏻👍🏻 When are you getting evo on track !!!!!!
If your going to bleed all your brakes always start with the brake furthest away from the reservoir
Actually that is incorrect. VW is backward. You start closest to the master cylinder and work away from it. I just read the MK5 Bentley manual.
Done mine today bled it and the brake peddle goes all the way down no braking at all
@@badboysergio that happened on my mk6 after bleeding 6 months ago I’ve let it sit but it’s starting to get rusty I got it jumped and it’s a Christmas tree. ABS and traction control lights blinking. Did you ever fix that issue
Would like to see;
Track day
Some Quarter mile times
Drag against other cars
0-60, 0-100
I'd happy to get against him my S3 2014 3 Door, I know he used to have one but I don't know if he has access to someone with one so could be a good comparison
Santa Pod and a track day would be good.
New subscriber here from California...Nice to see that you are one of the few un-obnoxious car youtubers out there...keep it up...
New camera is ace
Been watching for a while now and just subscribed. No patreon page, and providing QUALITY content. Good man!
Thank you!
Love these videos, I like how your genuine and don’t pretend to be an expert mechanic. Can’t beat a bit of DIY.
Great brakes! I have the PP package on my Mk7 and it came with the R/S3 brakes. The electronic diff and brakes were well worth searching for a MK7 with the PP package. Good work!
When bleeding brakes always bleed the farthest one away from the master cylinder as air can get trapped in the brake lines leaving you with a spongy brake pedal also advise you to put some type of brake grease on your new calipers and pads to stop brake squealing also will make it easier to dismantle when pads need replacing great video mate enjoyed watching it
Those VW wiring plugs are always fun, you have to push on them (compresses the rubber seal inside) before you unlatch the catch bit, also If you solder those 2 wires together the brake pad warning light will go out, but you'll have to keep an eye on your pad wear yourself.
Hamza provides REAL content. 4 best channels for car lovers. #TRHamza #LLF #Shmee150 #Yiannimize. Any other channel is just repeated content. I love this guys work! Its original! Keep it up
Dont forget Officially Gassed with Jaimy! 🤩
@@Vellinga94 nah fam I rather watch sideways sid than that
Just got one of these for myself as a project after watching your build! Keep it up, subbed and watching for inspiration and ideas of what challenges I might face 😁👌🏻 keep up the good vids!
Keep up the good work! The car needs to be lowered ASAP! Thanks for the great content.
Thank you! And agreed, very soon 👍🏼
Before you even mentioned the new camera,I said to myself this video looks much better than usual.👌🏽
Glad to hear 🙌🏼
I always grease up the backs of the pads, never get any squealing.
Did notice a squeak yesterday after a few days driving. Might take it apart again and grease them, thanks for the tip 👍🏼
TR Hamza defo put some copper grease on them, put some on where the wheel sits on the disc aswell
@@TRHamzaget some high temp brake grease from euro car parts, it doesn't dry out like copper grease can, costs about 3 quid. 👍
@@tracktimevideos5164 yeah I agree get some proper brake breeze👍🏻
Both this and Aleems vid pop up on my phone... It's gotta be this vid first always!!
To save loads of brake fluid running out you can take the reservoir cap off and cut a piece of polythene or plastic bag about 100mm square and place it over the reservoir then put the cap back on. That should create a seal and stop all that brake fluid loss.
I have a golf mk5 r32. Love these videos. Keep up the good work. What about a video on cleaning/grinding the rust on the inner arches then spraying. Mk5 all have it and want to do mine
Good stuff man! Cool to see you getting stuck into the diy. Hard when you first start so props to keeping at it
So satisfying looking at the old fluid! Them calipers and disks are looking so so sweet! Love it man
blacked out projector retrofits would change the whole look of the car completely 🔥
If you want to switch the pad warning off, bridge the wire that broke so basically cut the broken connector off and join the 2 wires together
Good stuff, bit of advice on bleeding brakes. You really want to start with the caliper that's furthest away from the master cylinder and work your way to the cylinder. For example on my Polo GTI, it would be rear left, rear right, front left and then front right. About 10-15 seconds is enough for the bleeder to be open normally.
I would agree with that normally, but the Golf MK5 has a specific bleed order which is start at nearest to master cylinder.
Also it's well worth bleeding out the clutch - shared system with the brakes, so there is still some old fluid in there. Plus if you have VCDS/VAG-COM then go through the ABS cycle too to get the old fluid out of there.
@@chrisryan3445 Thanks for the information. I never knew that for the Mark V.
Working hard as per usual my brother... As you said the car is coming together.
Regarding the ABS/Brake light on the dash, just loop the broken wire(s) so it completes a circuit... this will get rid of the light (temp solution only, lol. Replace it in the long run).
Also I am sure in the past I have seen a car like yours using the front removed calipers and discs on the rears... Just a thought 😉
Anyone with a VCDS can code the brake light off the dash and delet the sensor from the ecu. If you got no1 I can do it for you. Them sensors always break
Good content keep it coming.
Straight into the fence 😂😂
Brakes look mahoosive 😎
Luckily no fences were damaged 😂
Camera looks good bro. I’d say paint the back callipers black. Would look a lot better. Change suspension too when you can. Can’t wait to see this car when finished. Hopefully you sort body and minor details out. I know it’s nearly 200k Miles but old is gold as they say. Also for the break pad grease check out Textar Cera Tec from Euro Car Parts it’s a ceramic paste. It’s much better than copper grease. Read quite a bit about it on forums. Works a charm.
The brake pad light should go off if you twist the wires together for now until you get the Wear sensor sorted hope it helps 👍🏻
When youre doing the back brakes... start bleeding at the passenger rear, then drivers. Also bleed the front again. Grease the pads.
The car looks great and im amazed how good it is for its mileage. Good job.
Drag races against other cars.
Beating them.
If you lose, well back to appreciating beauty of the MK5 and get it ready to push it more!
Will arrange some car line ups with it
If I didn’t have an 80 mile round trip commute, I fancy doing this as a project myself!
You bleed furthest away from the master cylinder first which is nearside rear,offside rear,nearside front then offside front.
its dual circuit split diagonally so if you get a leak on say the offside front you still have full braking on offside rear and nearside front.
Should get a ecu for 2 step. For that you need a cateless downpipe a cold air intake and maybe a stock turbo. Deffo worth it
Stock 312's are fucking terrifying when your stage 2+, i can't imagine ko4 conversion on them lol.
I started down the same route...but ended up with new cayman calipers SKF bearings HEL lines textar pads mtec discs inner and outer tie rods oem shocks and eibach springs Nothing worse than getting carried away
Yet again another great video Hamza,I'm really enjoying watching them,look forward to more,cheers mate!!!👍
Glad to hear mate! Thank you
Great video Hamza! Love the setup in your garden 👍. Keep up the good work. By the way, the new camera is much better.
Thank you mate! 👍🏼
Keep it up bro the mk5 golf vlogs to addictive,, new cam is amazing quality
Glad you like it bro!
A stock golf r vs your GTI and do a comparison video
a tuned mk5 gti is alot better
7R brakes FTW
my type of mechanicing! rounding things off, having to buy a million tools for something supposedly simple, fluid and cr@p everywhere but get there in the end - nice one
LEDs or HID lights, DEFI Gauges...camera big improvement...as usual, like the direction of your channel. i think you might run out of room for all the cars soon though!
Good work brother , your gti is flawless machallah, i think next step is installing front r32/gti headlights the one with a light "directionally" bulb
Good on you for doing loads of stuff yourself matey. Best way to do it!
Good job join the two brake pad wires together to get rid of light on dash
What I'd like to see is the rear brakes upgraded to match the fronts. MKV GTI applies the rear pads before the fronts to prevent dive under brakes. Quite possibly ABS calibration is out of whack with the different brakes front and rear. Just short the two wires together on the wear indicator to turn the light off.
Yea I thought the same, the brake balance would be off doing fronts alone. Could even be worse than standard unless the rear brakes are upgraded to balance out the front.
Worse than standard lol, it’s about 10x better.
The stopping power might be greater but the brake bias will be out making the braking less effective.
Keep up the work bro, alot of youtubers have project cars but have done no mods lol
Haha thank you bro, gotta be done
Strip the brake sensors wire back and join the two wires together and it will get rid of the warning
Great you'll be a good car guy and mechanic. I'm also studying motor vehicle course I've done 2 years and one more year then I'll be working full time, if you need help let me know maybe one day I'll come and help once I've got car and also copleted this year as I need abit more knowlege, but I know the basics and some parts with engine. I like the videos I do each quite alot of these types of videos such as Chris fix because his a professional mechanic i learnt alot from you tube and alot from college had good experience, hopeing to get more better his year as I love working on old cars it's my passion.
Put your hand over the clips/springs and they won't ping away or blind you and the back of the pads should have been copper greased to stop squeeling/noise.
Would've been sick if you done a 60 to 0 video before brakes change and one after, would u be able to get a standard Golf gti and compare it?
The chunk missing out of the rear tyre @ 10:54 😳
Sick build though, keep up the good work bro..!!
Fresh full set of tyres on the way 😉 These were just temporary
Be good to see what this would be like as a daily hence the new horses and the mileage!! Reliability wise!
I did quite the same job last week , for the V gti you start front left 200ml-> front righ t200ml -> rear left 300ml -> rear right 300ml .
And then you flush from the nipple on top of the gearbox , right under your intake hamza you extract around 100ml of old fluid from there .
Nice uprade by the way !
the new camera is looking very good bro 🔥
Glad to hear bro 🔥
Keep up the good work man! Was it a plug and play with the whole brake installation for the brake pad of a mk7 to a mk5 ? No other tools needed. Cause that’s what I see in this video
Straight bolt on
Hi , were the golf R brakes just a straight bolt on with the new caliper ?
Would be great to see some more videos like the R32 and RS3 vlog
Will try get some fun vlogs arranged
Looking well now pal doing well with it she's a animal waiting to be let loose nice
You gonna tint the windows bro? Since the car came grey just do a black and grey theme. Theres also a red strip on the front grill change that to black too. Also blacken any chrome badges including rear. I must av missed a few things but up to you bro. Keep it up my g
Always grease up the back of the brake pads and wash the disc with brake cleaner before installing them
Didn't Copper Grease Pads to avoiding squeaking ?
Don’t need copper grease
The slide pins need grease that's what squeals the back of the back does not squeal
@@usa5046 The slide pins on new VWs don't need copper grease. They come un-greased and clean from the factory, and simply need to be wiped before re-inserting.
@@Ahmed____ sorry junior that's false information I work for a vw dealer the guides are lubed. If you buy any audi or vw service manual they say this....
Before inserting pads, clean guide surfaces and apply a thin coating of polycarbamide grease G 052 142 A2"
@@usa5046 yes sir... Correct
Hi Hamz, I want to replicate this brake set up, so: MK7 Golf R callipers ✅
Audi TTS disks, what year or Mk did you order please ?
Braided lines, what vehicle did you order the for please ?
Thanks in advance, loving all your content 👍
Great effort buddy keep the viddies coming
Thanks bud 👍🏼
Loving the videos Hamza! I know its a long way off but please tell me you'll be taking all 3 cars out in the snow this year. (if we get any) :)
I remember when you used to review cars from 5k subscribers
Bro love the vids , try investing in a high pressure steamer for those kind of parts , after using it to clean all the gung off spray it with a metal friendly anti rust and just wipe it down
Don’t worry about them not being drilled. Non-drilled discs are actually better.
I've used drilled they look good but rust like hell.
stichupman oh rly? Yeah do look sick but those holes create cracks as the brakes go thru big heat cycles
Keep up gti work also try do audi a3 mk2 projects
I know that now ou don't have the car, but did you remember how it was the pedal feel after that?
I am doing the exact same setup, did you need any special carriers, bolts, lines etc and or could you share your part numbers please, thanks again,
To make the pad wear sensor light turn off just join the 2 broken wires together bro 👍 and give my channel a shout out 😅 liked the video.. and like the brake fluid bleeder you used, I've used one in an old garage I worked at, it's a good bit of kit.
If you keep the brake pedal pressed with some wood and the seat moved forwards while you disconnect the lines you'll find they don't drip as much too, and easier to bleed after but don't forget to stop pressing the pedal before you bleed it lol. Looking forward to the next vid 🔥
Love the scoobie vids
Next video 🙌🏼
As far as I know ur ment to start bleeding brakes that's closer to the abs pump and grease up anywhere where the pads gonna be having friction against other metal parts 👍
U start furthest from the master cylinder to the closest. He did it backwards but nevermind
@@seanandersen5752 👍
What brake hoses did you used for the mk7 R calipers as youve used tts discs but mk7 r pads so curuios what hoses u would use?
Hi Hamza, is there any reason why you opted for the audi discs and not the golf R mk7 ones? Thanks
Bro ideally you wanna bleed the brakes furthest away from the brake reservoir (so in your case back left then back right then front left then front right)
On most cars this is the case. With the MK5 it isn’t Ive been told
@@TRHamza thats cool then bruv keep the builds going! 💪🏽 watching every single one💯😎
Good vids! Keep them coming.. next time id put copper grease on so they dont squeak!👌🏽👌🏽
Ah don’t need copper grease
Stooop u need copper grease also grease the slide pins but not with copper grease
You always start the break flush in the furthest corner away from the reservoir
Sony gang all day, another top video mate
you missed copper grease on where the pads sit
TOP MAN!
Do a video on fitting auto beam lights all round and sort us all out a discount code !
you planning on changing the lights on the car? suggest HIDs theyre bright and give off a white colour
You should upgrade your headlights to the projector ones..
Nice golf simple I like it
Good job
Thank you!
Green fluid is old fluid. Your ment to change it every 2 yrs. Fresh brake fluid is yellow for genuine vw which is the same fluid used in the audi r8. 😁
Can someone explain to me why more power needs bigger brakes.
Want to see the m2 vs gti at 0-60 and rolling race from 30
Gti round the track m2 round the track
Other people’s car reaction and drive
Nice Video man! I really love your content. Where did you order the brake set?
Thanks man! MK7 R Callipers and Lines are used, and Brake discs/pads are off Eurocarparts website
I really like that golf
Excellent video! I went through a similar experience when doing my brakes for the first time. Qns: did the caliper mounting brackets fit directly on? Are they 4-pot? And the TTRS brake disks bolted straight on? Could this all be done running the standard 17 inch GTI monza alloys? Thanks!
Good camera but you need a stabilised lens. Or a handheld gimbal
How much did that pressurized bleeder bottle kit cost you? did you get it on amazon? Also, the wires on the front brake sensor always break like that super common. If you can get on vag-com you can actually deselect the brake light warning, which also deselects the empty washer fluid warning as well. Did it on mine because I had the same issue with that sensor wire.
EID MUBARAK keep it up
