Vw Golf R32 Mk5 2008


Recommended Posts

Random place to put up a VW but who knows!

As topic states my VW Golf R32 MK5 is for sale. I ended up getting out of the import game and wanted something a little more subtle to drive around. Unfortunately the import bug has bitten again and I want to purchase an Evolution 8 MR.

From the array of cars I have owned, the R32 would have to be the nicest, most solid all rounder I have jumped into. The cars has 35,000km and is one of the last few low KM R32's in Australia. To top it off it comes with $2500 worth of VW extended warranty till the end of September along with Rego until the end of the year. The car is immaculate with a polymer coating on the paint. Full leather interior, electric seats with heating, 10 speaker premium standard sterio, freezing air conditioning and one of the nicest sounding N/A 6 cylinders I have heard and voted by carsguide. Coupled with the DSG auto it is an absolute delight to wake up and drive without any fuss or wanted police attention.

I am sorry for the absence of pics they will be uploaded a.s.a.p when I finish night shift for the next few days.

Asking price $32,000 Registered/Roadworthy.

KM/Mileage: 35,000km

DSG Auto

Colour: Black

There are 4 with low k's for sale on carsales, mine is the cheapest and the only optined with VW extended dealership warranty. it's one of those i will regret it as soon as i sell it kind of deals. in a perfect world i would purhcase an evo and keep the golf because as a daily, nothing has yet met the well rounded luxury and performance it has... except maybe an r35 gtr (but i haven't owned one of those, only driven :P)

my car is identical and as immaculate as these photos in this for sale ad. I don't have a sunroof though, I was never a fan.. kind of like an rb26 to me... i'd rather just have a friend who has one than own one myself.

    • Slap a 460L into the car, send its mum.  
    • So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again. 
    • Doing it this weekend. For sure this time. Thank you forum gods.  And im running map sensor now with the haltech. Still have the AFMs attached to the mushroom dome shaped air filter things
    • Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).
    • Blitz ER34 at some point hopefully, should be allowed in Gr3 if they do.
