Volkswagen Golf R MK7 (Stage 2) vs Volkswagen Golf R32 MK5 - "R" Heritage Showdown

In this video, I review a Volkswagen Golf R MK7 against my Volkswagen Golf R32 MK5 to see if a tuned 2.0 litre inline 4 powerplant can be as theatrical as a naturally aspirated VR6!

Is the MK7 forgiven for having just a 2.0l inline 4 engine compared to a 3.2l VR6? Let me know below in the comments! If you liked this video, make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe!

Really great to be back on the channel 💙🙌🏾 The R32 just sounds nuts💪🏽Just for everyones info, i did infact manage a 3.7 0-60 when the car wasn't so hot🔥 i'll be back when shes stage 3🤫

[@MRSTYFFakaLloydDStiff1]

Nice looking car & nice set up. Looks kleen. My boy has one that he just did a stg3 plus on n his. I think he is running meth & mix fuel as well

[@CarNitty]

Looking forward to having you back on in due time 🫱🏽‍🫲🏻

[@plaguexyz666]

I was told that as soon as you go Stage 3 you will sell the car ........ Just more lag ....Stage 2 is the pinnacle imho

[@CarNitty]

Funnily enough, Abid is looking to sell his car now he's stage 3 with over 500BHP

[@Az_TRL]

The break Car Nitty was so worth the wait for this new and improved show! Abid, you smashed it with this Golf R bro. Respect for keeping your head down and coming back with this crazy machine!

[@CarNitty]

Glad you're enjoying the comeback!

[@AbzzVisuals]

The only people I enjoy watching. Keep it up bro too sick with it🤙🏽😉

[@CarNitty]

Appreciate the kind words and your support ❤️

[@jonathonbrett-qn1ic]

Great episode love the beast of the mk7 mods generation but for me R32 old skool for me. Thank you

[@CarNitty]

Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@tahirislam107]

Props to Rizuals for the visuals at the end😍😍😍

A much needed uplift for the cinematics!

[@rizwanchoudhury4763]

Much appreciated❤️

[@bigped845]

Mate your videos are amazing, you have it down to a T. Looking forward to seeing what you do next, be interesting to get a s3 8p on to see the comparison to the r32.

[@CarNitty]

Perhaps you'd be more interested in seeing the MK6R on the channel instead of the S3 8P? 👀

[@bigped845]

@@CarNitty think it would be more close to the r32 in years but show just how far thay came with the tsfi engine. In what a year ore 2. Enjoying the videos mate keep up the good work 👏

[@CarNitty]

The MK6R and S3 8P are identical cars under the skin. Same engine and running gear and considering the 6R is the successor, it should make a good video!

Masha’Allah brother came back bigger and better .. the old video where Miz was so disappointed “m140i - m135i - 125i - 120i -118i” 😂🤦🏻‍♂️ my bro actually pulled the equivalent or better in my eyes to the m140i out of no where and came back bigger and stronger Alhumdulillah! 💪🏼 Videos crazy my bro Masha’Allah keep it up! Proud of you and my bro Abid 💪🏼💯 Soon come Stage3 😍🤩 Insha’Allah

[@CarNitty]

Couldn't have even summed it up better. Abid is just like his plate - always on the up! 🚀

[@TheJohny589]

@@CarNitty before flooring pedal! engine oil temp needs to be atleast 70 degrees? What's your recommendation?

[@CarNitty]

The honest truth is most cars these days don't have an oil temperature guage. If you do have one, I'd say 80 degrees onwards is very safe. Most cars have coolant temperature and this isn't a true reflection of how warm the car is. Id want this to be at the middle of the dial and wait another 5-10mins before doing anything to compensate for the oil taking longer to warm up

[@Alfie.Goalkeeping]

I get 3.9 0-60 in a stage 2 A35 AMG, love the sound of the V6 R32

[@CarNitty]

There's nothing quite like it

He should've sat in the luxurious boot as shown!

[@rizwanchoudhury4763]

What a numb ride that was haha😂

[@plaguexyz666]

They used to say the R32 sounds like Chewbacca .... 100% about sound the R32 however not sure about the over run ... Basically I got bored of my MK7 R if I was buying one now it would be a manual

[@AfraCrawford-bu1hk]

Keep tuned for the stage 3 car when it's ready!

Best looking Golf R I've ever seen.

[@CarNitty]

I have to say, I agree and that's not a very hard thing to live up to considering the number of modified 7Rs out there

Not everything. Anything that's badged as Integrated Engineering is all sponsored

[@Tatts084]

Love the R32. My charged one does 0-60 in 3.9 seconds and sounds immense.

[@CarNitty]

3.9 seconds sounds insane. Can't wait until I eventually get my hands on a boosted or supercharged R32

[@Sj.76]

9:08 was the best part 😂💨💨💨💨

[@CarNitty]

That car is ridiculously fast! 🤣

[@bentleybumer]

My stock m2 does 0-60 in 4.0 seconds flat and my old m140i stage 1 did it in 3.8 and they’re rwd? 🤨

[@CarNitty]

You can see the car does bog down and the 0-60 runs were done when the car was really hot. Abid's posted a comment here with the figures he achieved on another day with better circumstances

[@louievdub8821]

As a former owner of a Stage Two VF Engineering Supercharged MK4 R32 (LOST MY CAR TO A FLOOD) I'll take a R32 all day long. Still miss and wish I still had her 😞😞.

[@CarNitty]

Sorry for your loss. A supercharged VR6 especially in a MK4 guise sounds like bliss! Hope insurance paid out for that beauty...

[@louievdub8821]

@@CarNitty didn't even come close to what i put into her...took 6 yrs to build took my time then mother nature said its mine.......😢

Happy with my LLF GAMES 🏆 Golf R mrk 7 😅

Congratulations. Hope it's every much as an animal as this car!

[@bestcrazyboy8487]

Filmed in the UK 🤔🤔

[@CarNitty]

Yes, that's correct

[@davidthomas7424]

Golf r is bad boy hands down but r32 is the car with big mouth and no trousers unless turbocharged or supercharged

[@CarNitty]

It depends what you're after. If you're after speed, sure a tuned 7R will leave a lot of cars for dust but if you want a car that sings like an instrument then you can't go wrong with an R32

[@Sj.76]

Poor Riz 😂😢

[@CarNitty]

He knew what he signed up for 🤣

[@IEtuned]

MK7 R built right! 👌

[@CarNitty]

With the right mods done, ofc it is!

[@Diyman43]

3dr r32 over a 5dr has to be

[@CarNitty]

Can't say I agree. On MK4s and prior, absolutely but the curvy nature of a MK5 and newer always suit a 5 door in my opinion.

pointless cos ur FWD🫣

Will need a very long stretch of road to do 100-200 as well as the fact a lot of cars are electronically limited or physically can't reach 200
