THIS Was the Source of The Suspension Noise, and The R32 was CHEAP!

THIS Was the Source of The Suspension Noise, and The R32 was CHEAP!

One of the main reasons I got this car so cheap was the issues the front suspension was having. Noises, creaking, grinding from the suspension were all issues on the R32. Before tearing down the car to rebuild the engine, I wanted to diagnose the suspension noises. Today we take the suspension apart to figure out exactly what was causing the suspension noises. #R32 #Humblemechanic

The CHEAPEST R32 in the USA and Its ROUGH!

The CHEAPEST R32 in the USA and Its ROUGH!

Today we add another R32 to the fleet. This is a 2004 R32, MK4 generation. I am pretty sure it was the cheapest R32 in the US. The car needs some work. In this video we walk through all the MK4 issues, do visual inspections on the engine, suspension, brakes. Also plan for a fair amount of rust repair. At this exact moment the plan is for about 500WHP turbo setup. #R32 #Humblemechanic

Did the R32 Survive Tail of the Dragon?

Did the R32 Survive Tail of the Dragon?

For the last few years I have been talking about this event called Wookies in the Woods. It’s a driving event at “The Tail of the Dragon”, built around the Golf R and VW R32. There is so much great about this event. The people are amazing, the roads are a blast to drive, and it really stresses your car. While it’s not awesome to have something break, it’s a great excuse to make an upgrade 😉

I took my R32 out to see how she would perform. As you will see in the video, she did great. I did find one area where I can make some great improvements for the next modification. I also added two little goodies to it before leaving the mountains. You will have to watch the whole video to see. Be sure to follow the rest of the R32 restoration and rehab.

The Best Car Modification You Can Make
Loading
/

What is the best modification you can make to your car? Finding the best car mod is actually very easy. Its not an ECM tune. It’s not a performance exhaust, lowering springs, brake upgrades or window tint. The best performance modification for a vehicle is the DRIVER MOD! Learning to be a better driver is far and away the best thing you can do for your car. This holds true even if you are not a car enthusiast. The better driver you become, the safer you will ultimately be.
