APR Presents Exclusive Distribution of Volkswagen Racing UK’s Performance Product Line

[Arin@APR]

RaceLine Performance and Motorsport Catalog Now Exclusively Available through APR’s Global Dealer Network

Volkswagen Racing UK (VWR), home to the APR Volkswagen Racing Cup, has over a decade of motorsport experience with Volkswagen, Audi, Seat and Skoda platform vehicles in some of the most demanding motorsport environments. Through years of research and development, VWR was able to develop a product range applicable for both street and track use with a heavy focus on application and scenario specific products.

APR spent a considerable amount of time testing the VWR catalog across Europe, the UK and North America to ensure the product line meets APR’s strict engineering requirements. The VWR product line operated beautifully and APR is able to declare they are perfect compliment to high quality and performance proven APR product line.



The VWR catalog currently primarily focuses on VAG A5 (MK5/6 Golf, A3, TT, Scirocco, Leon, etc) and VAG A05 (A1, Polo, Fabia, etc) platform vehicles, however VWR is in the final stages of testing several performance parts for the larger Audi A, S and RS Line of vehicles such as the A4/A5, S4/S5 and TT RS. Suspension, Braking and Intake Systems will be the first products added to the catalog.

Yup! you got it!

[BigmountainVMD]

Is it all part of the sale?

[Angina]

are the intake prices what they will normally cost, or are they discounted due to the APR sale?

I ordered earlier and received 10% off ($516.60 plus shipping & handling) even though the discount was not listed on the website

We don't have sales pricing for the VWR product line. These are the normal prices.

Sorry about that but it's incorrect. The VWR produce line is not on sale.

[DViggen]

Wow..there's a handling charge too on APR's website too....

Wasn't there another place in the US that you could buy these parts from too? If not, I will look at buying it when I go to Europe next in a month or two....

APR and APR Authorized dealers are the only companies in the world able to sell you VWR parts.

You can use any of our dealers. Many allow you to pick the products up in person with no shipping or handeling fees.

It's better to support your local dealer anyways!

VWR did not have any US importers that I'm aware of.

http://www.tyrolsport.com caries them as well....and had them before APR had a rumor of them coming

Tyrolsport is an APR dealer. It's distributed through APR.

[palerider]

everything looks great to me except the tshirts really should be more in the $15-20 range imo

[BlackRabbit34]

I was hitting refresh all day hoping it would be available. Intake ordered, FMIC ready to install. This is going to be a great summer. Get that exhaust on the website!

[bludool]

How about an upgraded clutch?

DXD has a full line of clutches!

springs look like exactly what Im looking for.
but which won for the R? Im a little confused.


• Golf, GTI, ED30, Pirelli, ED35, GTD - MK5 & MK6
or
• Scirocco & R

In the write up on the APR page it states "VWR does not recommend sport springs on 4-Motion vehicles such as the Golf R and R32 as lowering the ride height from the factory does not offer a significant improvement and can even harm the ride and handling balance of these vehicles. For these vehicles the VWR Streetsport and Streetsport+ Coilover Systems are highly recommended."

thanks. my subconscious must have glazed right over that paragraph.

no offense to APR, but this statement is VERY contradictory to every other vendor out there.

I also find it a rather brash upsell to say lowering the car is bad but then offer up their fully height adjustable coil-over setup for 5Xs the money.

is apr saying that anything lower than stock will hurt performance and handling?

Yes, because the springs were not designed for the OEM shocks on the 4 motion vehicles. Springs and Coilovers are two completely different products, so it's not an up sell any more than me telling you flat out "On a GTI MK6 I recommend the coilovers over the springs if you want to greatly improve handeling." But if you don't believe me you can pick a set you think's correct and run them. I'm just here to tell you the results are not favorable.

Just keep in mind that not mentioning the issue may be other companies' brash way of selling a product (the springs by themselves) as well. I don't know which is true...just throwin it out there.



Good lookin products, Arin. Some serious coinage though. Maybe some coilovers in my future. Can't decide is I should do suspension or chip first.

arin, thanks for the explanation.
perhaps you should add that to the description.
I can buy spring rate issues, specifically not made for the R, etc.
but when it only talks about ride height you have to admit it seems a little odd.

hypothetically speaking... which set of springs would an R take?

[Arin@APR]

hypothetically speaking... which set of springs would an R take?

I don't know what to suggest because I know nothing in the VWR testing was suitable or they'd have a product for you to buy, unless they aren't fully developed yet. I can check on that, but I'm leaning towards non are suitable.

BTW the price of a coilover kit is no where near the price of springs. They are in two different leagues.... Someone looking to spend a few hundred bucks on springs is not going to be 'tricked' into coilovers. I rather just have springs to sell if there were any!

[casperslost]

Wheres the exhaust Arin!

[SCHWAB0]

Sooo... can you guys the the Euro Golf R Springs or do I have to rob a bank for this and buy them off the UK site?

[BlackRabbit34]

Wheres the exhaust Arin!

I second that

[Arin@APR]

Wheres the exhaust Arin!

We don't offer the VWR Exhaust Systems in the US.

VWR does not sell Golf R springs.
