Hi. No I do not work for PowerZone. I am an enthusiast like you. But I was the one who took a lot of the expenses to make this rear Haldex Gen 4 and 5 to be a reality. Also I was not who made it happen Technically. That was a guy named Martin in the Netherlands who shared the same passion and will to get the rear LSD to his TTRS 8J that has the Gen. 4 unit. I can highly recommend this mod. It is one of the best mods to the car beside the power increase. π After all this work Wavetrac in the end decided to offer the rear kit (I think they used 2-3 years to develop a kit after PowerZone) But this is not a plug and play solution. And require a shop to do it (for most people) The PowerZone is a complete drop out and inn solutions as you buy a complete diff that is modified. It's maybe some what more expensive. But if you sell the stock diff you will recover some of the expenses. @trep13For info. There are to diff "sizes" for the Gen. 4 and Gen. 5 diffs. We call the Small and Big. All RS models have the Big diff (TTRS and RS3) the Small diff is on all others. PS. There is also a Big diff from the Passat TDI twin turbo. It looks the same but it has other mounting points. Hope the explains the two last post... π π

Did you check the fuse?

Sorry. They are long gone...

I know this but did not want to upgrade that much! But maybe now... Any links? π

Hi. Yes I installed the rear spring as they original had snapped in the middle. I did not feel any big difference vs oem 7R springs. I believe the front will do more as this is where I feel the 7R is to soft when pushed in corners (on track that is)

Would you be willing to share setup files with me? π -
Me to is on SuperPro all around. H&R ARB Font and rear here. Yes the rear Haldex 5 Wavetrac LSD combo is expensive. I know had to pay for 3 developments diffs to make it work... π But it was worth it all in the end. Keep in mind. I also use my car on ice. So this is where it makes it the most... π π

Hi. I live in Norway. So have only tracked it here. We have 3 tracks to use in the south. VΓ₯lerbanen, Rudskogen and NMC. The car pulls great in corners and it gives a lot of confidence. It also over stear if push. I did not test it on an ice track with the rear and front combo yet. Hope this winter. If I want it will do doughnuts on the parking lot π€£ π

DSC sport controller upgrade for DCC equiped Rs
PocketRocket replied to rosslm's topic in Modifying your Golf R MK7
Hi. Cool to read others buying this. I have mine in the box still. Never had the time to install it! Do you use the same oem file it came with or did you start testing with your own setups? My car is similar to yours. All is changed except springs and DCC dampers... -

Not yet... Are you still interested?

Suspension refresh and upgrade advice
PocketRocket replied to scoobyc's topic in Modifying your Golf R MK7
Thanks. Please keep us posted when you have done the mod. π π I have all bushes swapped out for the SuperPro once. Have H&R ARB front and rear. Have 034Motorspors top mounts with camber offset. Have also Wavetrac LSD diff's front and rear (first in the world) last bit is the spring and dampers that are stock! My stock OEM rear spring broke last year so have installed RS3 8V Sportback spring to my 7R. After reading about them being a bit beefier and had them in a box I decided to test them out... π -
Caliper upgrade that doesn't require spacers
PocketRocket replied to meandmyself777's topic in Modifying your Golf R MK7
Hi. I have the RS3 8p or TTRS 8J Brembo 4pot calipers. This requires spacers between 5-10mm for the OEM 19" Prets. The reason for the thickness variable is due to Disc use. OEM 370x32mm discs needs more spacers. I have Vagbremtechnis 362x32mm disc and they have a different offset that give you better clearance. But still needs minimal spacers. To fix this issue you can use Audi RS3 8v Sportback front wheel bearings. ( RS3 8V Limo uses a different bearing) This gives you 10mm Integrated spacers in the hub. But then you need to use RS3 discs⦠Coasts for the bearing is higher but then OEM discs fits perfect⦠-

Hi. I did this to my family wagon. A Skoda Superb 280hp DSG and 4wd. This car is stock. And compared to my tuned 7R the throttle pedal was very long and it was very tyering to drive longer trips. After this mod the car vaw great to drive. Just like my 7R. But without the tune... I'll see if I can find the info I used...
