What are the differences between mk4 R32 and mk5 R32 engine's?
what bhp does each one have? from what i can see the mk4 has 225bhp and the mk5 has 250bhp?? is this correct? if so why is the mk5 one quicker?
-
I thought the Mk4 was 240??? I did have one and I'm sure it was about that.
The Mk5 was 250 with a slightly different map and internals (cams etc)
The Mk5 0-60 could of been done with DSG?

so the mk5 engine is alot better that the mk4?

The MKIV is ~240bhp IIRC....
Personally, I can't get over the chintsy, spangly MKV R32 grill... the MKIV is a nicer looking beast, I think anyway. :party:

I wouldn't say so..... The engine left NA with uprated cams, map, zorst etc, the mk4 always came out with more power and torque. The Mk5 I'm guessing was a little heavier too. Chassis in the Mk5 was better.

they had the 6463 update at vw did the mk4 that sorted out a flat spot in the rev range and also upped the power to 240ish bhp make sure the car has had this update

Same. Would have a MK4 R32 over a MK5 one all day long purely for looks.

was this a call out??
Im getting a mk4 r32 on friday but i have 2 to choose from, one has had a 2008 r32 engine transplant and the other is std mk4 r32.
-
no choice on that mate get the one with new engine fitted
-
no choice on that mate get the one with new engine fitted
really!? he doesnt have a recipt. also its a 5 door, the other is a 3 door, but the 5 door is a grand cheaper with the new engine. :rolleye:
-
how close is it mate if you want me to come look just ask as i had one :smiley: or if you have any pics or info pm to have a quick look at :happy2:
-
PM'd :smiley:
-
I am pretty sure the actual engines are the same.
The 6463 update was because the Mk4 owners realised this and got upset. :wink:

6463 was done way before the mk5 came out i am sure of if it
-
I would never get a car with any sort of "transplant" or new engine from a different car. Far too many variables that could go wrong! I saw this black gti with a edition 30 transplant the other day! Dodgy looking front splitter ;) hahaha
-
bet it was alot quicker than your's though edd! :P

I wouldnt buy if there are no receipts for the transplant mate too risky on a 3.2 lump, Full VAG history with all haldex services done and the 6463 update is what you want. 3 doors in DBP if you can find a good one... the fastest and best colour :happy2:

The DPB ones go for about 1500-2000 more unfortunatly. :sad1:

You will love the R whatever colour you get mate..the soundtrack is just awesome :jumping:
-
I'd go for the one with the least miles.
The cams in the Mk4 don't fit in the Mk5, so there are differences.
If it helps..... My old R!

^^^ Try R32oc.co.uk, it's an excellent resource! :happy2:
I'm agonising over the ED30/S3/MKIV R32 debate at the moment, but the extra cylinders are kinda winning TBH...
If you can find either a red or a dark grey MKIV (esp w/sunroof!) then you're onto a winner. The DPB is by far the nicest looking colour, though...
Joe, I've been looking at this R32, £11.5k, but top class condition:-
