In this video I wanted to tackle the boring, lack lustre driving characteristics of the #vw mk8 #golfr #build by upgrading multiple parts of the car including bigger brakes all round, new suspension and new wheels and tyres.

chris u need a downpipe and exhaust from milltek for this
Agreed 👍 brother, will b a beast!👊👌🦾🦾🦾
DSG fart time
@@brucerudge3404 millteks the best option its better then everyone else by miles
No Akrapovic is better.
no akropovic sounds good but its not loud if u hear them both ull understand plus u cant get akra , the only way u can get it is by speccing it when buying the car brand new@@Kingdonnerkebab
That dashboard looks next level! Fair play😍
Wheel Finesse smashed that fair play!
That interior is the best mod! Amazing workmanship, nice to see you get involved also
2 wires to rear caliper. Apply 12v one way itll retract, 12v the other way and itll wind out.
Mate, the car looks sick. Glad to see your channel growing, keep at it. Great content to watch
So glad you changed those callipers, think it’s criminal that VW don’t at least equip them with 4 pots.
Just the new wheels alone make all the difference, so much better 👌👍
My oh my..
I love big brakes and these are something else. Calipers are honestly gorgeous. 😊😍
That's made it look loads better! The wheels and little drop in height makes all the difference. Top work fella 👍
🌶️Spicy🌶️
I tried to watch other RUclipsrs rebuilding cars even those having millions subscribers and building supercars but It doesn't seems interesting for me. Yours content is what I really love to watch. Great job and keep doing Bro
Awesome work Chris South Africa is watching as always salute
I would buy this as a daily. Dash cover is a mega upgrade too 👌
Those calipers and disks are eye candy ! 🔥🤤
Great quality of work done Chris,simply 👌
Golf starting to look amazing. All it needs now is a performance exhaust
That looks sick lad, love the new brakes and wheels, dash board looks like something that cost in excess of £100k. Top drawer as per usual!
😎❤
Yes Chris, hope you are well ❤ now let’s get into the video
New brake Discs, callipers are sick!! Car looks minted with new Wheels and love the new Alcantara dash n Steering wheel 👍🏻😉👊🏻
New discs and pads means those brakes will be even more savage once everything has bedded in. Car looks sick!
Awesome video mate. I have really enjoyed watching this car take shape from crash damage to this beautiful Golf R, be great to see what the next mods will be 👍
Chris, great video. Car’s looking fab! Can’t believe the difference in braking distance! Keep up the good work.
Crazy improvement 💪👍👍
Drove past the Golf on the way home… it looks amazing great job Chris 😃
Chris you didn't orientate the front top mounts, there is a tap that has to be facing a certain direction or the camber caster is off. You may of by accident located them correctly but chances are they are wrong and your alignment will be out. When you get the alignment redone the caster will be incorrect and the car won't drive properly.
Sick motor and perfect mods!!
Looking good, much better with all this mods
looks good, my only worry is if my car stops that quick it gives the car behind less time to stop.
Chris, it's really coming together..those brakes....bet they weren't cheap..nice wheel colour and design 👌👌💪
Legend, the car looks sick now
Love your work on this one up until the dash , even before the sun baked it I saw wrinkles lol, grave error here but the rest I love
Those brakes are sick Chris..good job👍🏻
Love watching Matt Armstrong 2.0 no but for real he’s actually gangsta and cars are on the ⬆️
Looks sick! Yep, It definitely needs a good remap at mallory performance now 😉
If you put a clamp on the line, you won’t lose all the fluid
Didn't know you had a channel until your SVR roadtrip vid came to my recommendations today. Subbed and going through all the cars
Looks really good Chris! 👍🏻
Car looks well now Chris👌
Great choice of wheel Chris
Great work Chris ❤
I was gonna get those wheels for my R but got some O.Z Ultraleggeras instead. Great video
BRAKE PORN!! 🤣 Awesome work Chris! Looks great, functions even better!
Looking good and the r badge on the wing is finally back on, honestly this car is cold 🥶😮💨
been looking forward to this one! Nice 1 Chris
Bravo ! Can’t wait for the performance upgrade. What about a Mat Armstrong & Chris Slix video ? Would love to see you guys build up a crashed damaged car together !
This is litrally matt off wish 😂
Another banging video. That brake and suspension kit is amazing 👏 I would have definitely had to have some quite time with them before I fitted them 😂
Done amazing job on that keep the good work going
The wheels and stance make all the difference.
Off piste Q: what Garage flooring have you got in your workshop please?
Nice, the dog matches the dash
Not sure on the Golf R but master cylinder and ABS pump need bleeding on most VAG's with a calliper swap. Easy to do the ABS pump with ObdEleven 👍
Loved that Chris ! 👍🏻
You have to increase the area of the tires contacting the ground in order to get better braking, not the brakes themselves.
Great restoration, and car looks the D Bs. 👍👍👍👍
Great Wheel Choice!
Man those dashboard upgrade is sick,.
Nice one Chris! looks mint
Fantastic video. Well done mate
Nice nice the top mount is the last part to unbolt ,makes easier removal chris , ps your a naughty boy not cleaning those hubs before fitting the new discs 😂, looks awesome buddy
Looks so much better, I had a mk7.5 R and didn't fancy an 8 because they were too bland. Should have looked liked this from factory 👌
What a transformation, I know lots of people have done golf R’s but yours definitely stands above the rest 👌at the (oem+) level. mostly because of the sad interiors that golf’s have but now yours with the dash wrap transforms it and it makes a massive difference. Can’t wait to see the next project ❤ just not like mats McLaren 😂 ✌️❤
Looking sweet mate 👌🏽
Youre funny Chris. Little comments and chuckles. Great content, keep it up
I'm interested in buying it when your finished with it.
Dream car😍
Loving all ur videos and thing about doing some crash damage cars just need some coaching ❤❤❤
Interior is missing the Racingline airbag stickers for the passenger sun visor 👌🏻 gets rid of those big white warning stickers!
Great video again Chris but you need to move your seat forwards looks like your peering over steering wheel your that far back
Killer, keep it up champ.
Chris... did you know if you put the screw driver on the disc before the caliper you would torque the studs way easier 😅
Even the dog is colour matched to the car 😂
Amazing car
Nice upgrades and not sure why you did the brake test. As you changed the wheel size and new tyres. Plus, bigger brakes, so will be100% better over the old set of brakes and tyres.
When you put on your Manscaped T-Shirt and started talking about having new shiny nuts, I thought you were going to do an advert 😅
Wish I could have the Golf 8 R rims since you'll nolonger be using them
Time for a new project Mr Chris🕺
you can use a dragy to measure 60-0 mph
Love OBD11, literally today. I used it to retro fit/code a bunch of cool features for my Audi. Although what dose the throttle response adaptation actually do? Dose it just keep the throttle in dynamic mode no matter what mode u r in? Or will it actually change the response in all modes? Therefore, it is slightly better still when the car is in dynamic/ sport setting?
Your dog sounds like mine when talking…exactly the same ‘dog accent’ 😂
Wow slix
Enjoyed your Golf R vids, especially brake upgrades. Do you have a link for the footrest, id like to get one. Thanks
A black wv logo maybe
Quality
A remap next maybe?
Damn, bought an OBDeleven for my golf R the day before this video came out 😅. Oh well.
Looking forward to the tune unless you flip which would make sense or do a giveaway
You need to get a downpipe and tune!
It looks really good now definitely not like tr Hamza's anymore
Looks awesome mate, gold wheels would’ve looked fucking quality!
Spotting the mat Armstrong branding I see
Wicked video Chris but defo needs to be a touch louder
Dude you need to clean the rust off the wheel hubs before fitting a new brake disc to prevent shuddering and to do a cleaner job!
Was that weird Al yankovic who stitched your steering wheel up? 😂
Ok 2 questions. When bleeding the brakes why didn’t you start with the calliper furthest away from the servo? And did you use weight plates when adjusting the suspension??
Already scraped the splitter Chris 😢😢😂 8:02
Gloss black front center console please
No gonna lie that dash wrap looks well shit. Hope it doesn’t affect the airbags in a crash 🤦🏻♂️
OMG THERES JOHN
Awesome job. Dude stop saying Jesus Christ people will be offended I’m not bovered myself. Be safe
