- Today I have a 2004 MK4 R32 Golf and a Mk5 R32. I compare the two and take them both for a drive with an in depth tour thanks to my buddy Nick “mr.turbohand” over at ACI Dynamix in Seymour CT

Absolutely nothing beats the sound of the VR6
Agreed
I’ve got a 12v VR in my Cabby. Sounds good, but my old 4.2 S4 straight piped was better
My 04 R32 still brings a smile to my face every time I drive it.
His ''daily driver'' is even more awesome! Love the MKV R32!
the unique exhaust note has more to do with the inequal length of the intake and exhaust runners than the piston orientation. Yes the orientation of the VR6 block nessecitates the short / long offset of the runners for the intake and exhaust but it is that fact that makes for the "wookie" sound. some beautiful cars you're showing off here.
The MK4 R32 all day long. I owned a 2004 VW Golf MK4 R32 with a Stage 2 VF ENGINEERING SUPER CHARGER INTERCOOLED with alot of go fast parts to much to list. I loved it and it's a driver's car much more than the MK5 R32. Still miss her to this day, lost her in 2012 to SUPER STORM SANDY in NYC 😢. Hold on to that nice R32 enjoy her. To other people it's just a piece of metal and bolts but to enthusiasts car's are like part of the family. Nice car very clean I had the same color.
"Never seen rain" Rains every fucking day in Florida...
Had a similar mk4 r32 with the same 19” BBS ch wheels. Miss that car everyday, but bought it at a time in my life where I couldn’t keep up with the maintenance cost. 2k for a new steering rack did me in. One day I’ll get another. I’d argue the stock exhaust with flapper mod sounds epic, above every aftermarket exhaust. Beautiful cars and quality content. Thanks, guys
Did you have run 5x112 with an adapter, I don't recall BBS making this wheel in 5x100 bolt pattern in 19"?
@@oldkid6 no adapters
@@AndrewHeisey Then those are 18x8 wheels, they don't make 19's with 5x100 bolt pattern. thanks for answering my question, mr. turbohand does a great job of never taking a photo of the wheel size.
@@oldkid6 not sure what to tell you, I didn’t by the wheels they came with car. I could swap the stock wheels on for winter, no adapters. 🤷♂️
yeah i hear ya, the mr. turbo guy is running 19's with adapters because i paused the video and stamped right on the wheel is ET30, that offset did not come in the 18" wheel, only 19"s
Stock to stock, that mark 5 dsg will whip the mark 4 EVERY time. I would still rather have a 6 speed. I love my Mark 4, its my daily at 180k, the car is bulletproof. Cammed and every other mod you can imagine, Euro spec. everything. They look so good, turn heads.
You are right.Different dynamics.
It just shifts faster, I raced a buddy over and over he gets me every time
Both Golfs are fine but the best investment you can make for yourself is to go to a safe driving school where every teacher has at least one championship to their credit and you will find out in the best possible way how good it will be for you does at all levels !!! Trust me it's the best for young age drivers and the knowledge you'll get is way better than an exhaust or an engine tune up. Good travels everyone.
Proud UK owner of a Mk4 here
I like the video bro!. Thanks for putting the effort to show both of the models.. The MkV comes with a pretty good sounding stereo with a CD stacker, but I seldom listen to it because the exhaust sounds better!
I held the camera for most of this video.
Much love, great video. Love the car
Thank you!!
This R32 is a “show stopper”
It will definitely outshine any newer golf version period.
By the way, you are so wrong about the DSG slowing the car down, the DSG is quite a bit faster than the manual version.
jajajaja que envidia todo lo relacionado al video, el lugar y los autos
PLEASE can you see if you can get the wheels specs for his mk4 R32. I have a reflex silver one and I can’t for the life of me find the perfect specs on the web and I love his fitment. It’s exactly what I want
Uh dude DSG is definitely faster than the 6 speed. The MK5 is also stronger if you boost it because of the DSG as well.
This is correct. The mechanic got it wrong.
Cool video
Muito top demais esse golf mk4 r32 show de carro o ronco do golf r32 sem palavras muito show meu sonho nave demais 👏👏😍😍😎😎
I've had both Mk4 R32, manual and DSG. The DSG is so much better.
I've had a V R32 DSG and a friend of mine IV R32 DSG.
Unfortunately my car was taken away from me cuz it was stolen from the previous owner by a turk.
Also I got pushed of the Road by a truck when I was driving the IV ...
man that mk4 is minty
That MK5 is my car!
They weren't produced in the US
I miss mine
What’s your lip setup on the mk4 also nice car !
Maxton Design
What would a VR6 2003 GTI go for in great condition?
Look it up.
Uff sinfonoc sound
that is one bitchin mk4
Like the video! Your technical definitions/specs could use a little work but otherwise great video!
Thank you! Did a little research before filming definitely missed some stuff
@Anthony Misakian Can vouch for your praise of the MK4. I have one in Tornado Red with cloth interior which was the rarest combination in the US. Had it since 2006. Euro spec models had other even rarer colors and even the stock konig seats had alcantara centers as an option. Question: thinking of retrimming my stock steering wheel. The wheel on the mk4 in this video looks like a retrimmed stock wheel, but in the video you mention that it is a replacement wheel, suggesting it is aftermarket. Was that what you meant or is it actually a stock wheel that's been retrimmed with that carbon fiber and perforated leather rim? the center section (airbag section) looks stock.
Custom made wheel to be retrofitted with the airbag
Where your skip location ? I own mk5 r32 I need someone work done on the car
Only produced in 2004? Well no man. Some of this information doesnt add up but good content never the less tho..
how did you manage to make the DSG so fast in upshifts?
(Sorry for my bad english)
It’s actual a spark cut/tune
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP thanks so much
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP Did you make it with a specific software? Wich one?
Becouse they are becoming stupid expensive în Europe 2,I have a plan,buy a 2.3 VR5,make it as OE as I can,look like a R32,pass inspection ,în Europe you need to do that,then find a Touareg or Phaeton or Passat 3.2 VR6 engine,harness, ecu, make a swap and have my some kind of a R32 but not an insane price tag.
Get a 2.8 instead. Great car and you don't need to change anything if money is an issue.
What is the wheel and tire spec on the mk4?
They look like BBS Ch-r's so probably 18x8+38 with a 225/40/18 or 225/35/18
@@D3F3ND3R412C they’re 19’s!
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUP yeah i heard that in the video but i mean wheel offset and width and tire size 😊
@@ENGAGE_AUTO_GROUPAre you 100% sure they're 19's? I'm about to get these same wheels for my R32 and for a direct fitment with offset of ET38, they only come as 18x8.
@@oldkid6 110% they’re 19’s
What’s the specs on the wheels on the mk4 r32
BBS CH's
DSG is so much faster.
It's also much more boring to drive IMO
@@hapjoy16 If you think driving a mkv r32 is boring then you're not driving it right. I've owned one since 08 and that car is anything but boring. That being said yeah depending on the car a manual can be more fun for sure. They are both super nice cars for sure and the sound of the VR6 is the best!
@@themacjunkie Uh, MK4 is what I roll... Row my gears or I prefer somebody else drive let me be the passenger 🤷🏾♂️
VR6 is glorious regardless of transmission 💯
Buddy shitted on the MKV Period....smh!
U mean 17 years old
What are the specs of the bbs on the mk4?
I think the word RARE is thrown around too loosely
Not really. When u don't see a car on the road but only once every few months or even years, I would say it's pretty rare.
Cool video
