Hey mate,

Can you send me photos of the rims please. May be interested.

Cheers,

Hi Noah,

Got it from Volkswagen spare parts. Took a while to get it and by weight is probably the most expensive piece of plastic on the planet. Does fit perfectly though. From memory it was just...

To do with new emissions laws in the states. There will be many more tuners to follow.

German Auto for the APR tunes. I’m quite certain Stage 2 APR is no longer available.

Hi Trent. I’ve done 99% of it myself. Angas Mitchell Automotive at Edwardstown did the downpipe and all my servicing. Have got many other VW’s I get serviced through him as well (work vehicles)....

Hi Kelvinator,

I’ve had a stage 1 high torque APR in my Golf R special edition for near on a year. APR TCU tune for near on 9 months. Changes the car the for the better. No issues, amazing power...

Update. Took it for a drive this afternoon after the APR stage 2 high torque update. I decided to be a douche bag and get the crackle and pop file. Actually glad I did at this stage. The APR crackle...

New addition yesterday. 034 Motorsport X34 front air cooler thingy. Looks a treat. 034 Motorsport downpipe installed today. Getting stage 2 tuned as we speak. She’s a bit...

Check out 034Motorsport as well. I can’t say I’ve tried anything else but I couldn’t be happier with them. Nice drop, not too harsh, still perfect for a daily.

Hey Jordzz,

Difference between stock and stage 1 is night and day. Unfortunately the res delete is sold. I do have the 034 dogbone motor mount still for sale which is an amazing upgrade. Willing...

Sorry soundaktor set to 0 not the actuator.

Hi Roh008,

Actuator set to zero via OBD11. I haven’t touched individual mode to be honest. Race mode or drive mode only. The drone is there but it is very minimal, only under certain load ie up...

Bumpedy boo.

Old thread but thought I’d chime in here. I have an SE with 034 res delete, stage 1 high torque, intake etc done. The exhaust in race mode is loud. A little drone sometimes at certain revs/load but...

This is equally as good as the stage 1 and DSG tune but for your suspension. You’ll be very happy with the choice. I take my hat off to you still tuning while all this COVID business is happening.

Probably should add. The drop in height in my opinion is perfect. Not too much. Have not bottomed out on anything or out of steep driveways but I am cautious. I think 034 really did a lot of product...

Hi Trucky,

That’s exactly what I’ve got. Works very well for daily driving. A tiny bit firmer but not offensive. Handling improvement is amazing. Turn in is wild, understeer almost non existent....

New additions.

Rally Armor mud guards.
Ferodo DS2500 brake pads.

Rally Armor mud guards...

Not my car but pretty keen to do this. Anyone done it in Oz? Approximate cost?

Maybe one day. If I do I’ll post times for sure. Seriously considering stage 2 now. I could have picked up a 034 downpipe the other day for a good price but put the brakes on the purchase. The wife...

Feedback re the intercooler and TCU tune.

Wagner Intercooler - Intake temperatures lower and more stable. Temperatures still rise in stop start traffic but once you are in free flowing air temps...

I’ve done the APR stage 1 high torque tune in my Mk7.5 golf r and the APR tcu tune. Well worth the money and fun. The ECU tune gives you the power you deserve and the tcu tune sharpens everything up....
