What do you lot reckon? M4 or Golf R? We’re hoping to get the video up on Ricky’s channel this Sunday so look out for that. Give me a follow on insta @calvinscardiary
Calvin's Car Diary brilliant video . Id go for thinner tyres ideally if its a straight . But you get him easy on some bends with low pros . The golf should still beat him . I like ricky but i feel his tune was mainly turbo boost and if im right then once he gets hot the lag will get worse and worse .
true that m4 was quicker than the supra but your not accounting the auto gearbox and the weight differences. the golf definitely gonna loose i think still
@MSi GS70 6QE If you jack up your car,or stick it on q ramp you can isolate one wheel,normally you can hear a bad bearing just spining the wheel..but try and determine where the noise is coming from..im not a mechanic,but heard quite a few bad bearings and bad gearboxes in my day.what car is it?
Calvin, I’d upgrade to a big brake kit ASAP. As well as your rear rotors, they look like they’ve had a tough life. And for peace of mind, get yourself an aftermarket DSG clutch. It will be super strong with zero slip! Don’t be stingy!!
tuning the DSG (which I hope he has done) will max out the dsg to handle 600Nm. If its slipping no matter the engine tune the clutch packs will go. Uprated clutch packs and blue haldex tune and that golf r really will fly
At 3:30 you're talking utter shite man 😂😂 also more mid range and lower peak figures will actually cause more clutch slip. High torque at low rpm will require more clamping force and friction coefficient than more hp at high rpm
I think you need to do a race in the dry and then in the wet to see the difference. It’s pretty impressive both cars are running the power they are on mainly stock drive trains
Race him at Santa Pod in the wet and you'll have him, come to think of it I would probably have him in my unmodded Golf R. If your doing rolling starts in the dry I think you're going to struggle to keep up.
Calvin a few hints to add acceleration you may want to try to help the WIN. Remove weight, rear seats spare wheel if you have one on board, run with the minimum amount of petrol in the tank, empty the windscreen washer bottle. If you get any traction problems drop all the tyre pressures by 6 PSI maybe more then heat the tyres up with some hard braking and accelerating before the race, if you still have traction problems fit a set of Toyo R888 or R888R road legal track tyres ( They are superb and will out perform most if not all other road tyres for grip and overall handling !!!!!) Anyone else think of anything else that can be easily done to further reduce the overall weight?? This will also reduce the stress on mechanical components. G O O D L U C K ! :-)
The way i see it going is this..Calv will get the jump,4wd,plus the power to weight ratio..ricky will catch him if he can hold the throttle steady..and more than likely beat him...but we could all be very surprized..that golf is well capable of beating 7 or 750hp..it just depends on that start
If its damp then the R every time which everyone will know anyway rwd vs haldex. But Rickys M4 doesnt seem to have any lag and I think the R does have a bit of lag. Rolling runs if its dry I think youll be chasing the M4 even if its slightly heavier. Most of it will be down to right foot reaction times..... Are the R brakes still good with nearly double the power though???? They still look stock.
Surely the Golf R gets the nod up to 80/100, M4 will have traction issues - once it hooked up though it should go on for the win at higher speeds. Great race, can't wait
Im a golf fan but the way that bimmer goes when hooked up it will beat the golf ur only advantage is to get the right tyres for the right day track tyres will only work if warmed up nick with the GTR got some AR1 tyres
Just bought a DSG Golf R & love it. Looking to stage 1 it to try and bump up the power so it competes with my MK1 TT V6 Turbo but unsure where to get the mapping done. Suppose there are a few options and really enjoy these videos - THANKS
I remember the old Naff-Naff jackets back in the day in school..bit b4 your time though young man lol:)..I liked that MK4 4Motion courtesy car..clean as f*ck..used to love them back in the day..especially the rare 3dr in black with the black heated recaros....:)....
571ftlbs of torque... Holy crap! im surprised that the stock DSG can handle that much torque.... at that levels of torque, im not surprised why the clutch was slipping. maybe try and increase the hp at the top end and reduce torque a little bit more to conserve the clutches and the engine components, even though ik the engine is capable because the pistons are forged
Rejoice Rone its the clamping pressure in the box thats the issue, they need adjusting so that more pressure is applied gradually towards the top end, instead of an instant clamp. My mates had the same problem at 500hp 460ft lb. Fantastic engine but they have their limits.
the Beemer will start to pull hard mid to top range, really don't think the golf will have the legs to stay with it...... You'd best hope for a damp/wet day...... Keep her lit
Been watching your videos since about 15k subs, cannot believe you're not up there in the hundreds of thousands. Fantastic videos Calvin. Plus, I think the Golf R could win the race, the 4-wheel drive being the main factor. Ricky's M4 is damn powerful, but as it's just rear wheel he'll have a harder time putting the power down!
I don’t get it? 585bhp on pump fuel and that’s you saying more power? 3 weeks ago the car was 600bhp and it was 600bhp when you bought it from Arthur so how come it’s less than 600 now with more power?
Good vid as always mate! You should team up with Matt at car wow and use the same track they use. Maybe put another car or two into the mix to get a good comparison of the power you and Ricky have. Could get some serious views on a video like that!
You and Ricky have got me going to VRS next week, all these videos, it was rude not to! Stage 1 and few other bits 😳 Calvin can you send link to the top you’re wearing, that one looks more of a shining finish to the ones I can see on your site?
Your visuals are stupidly sick bro like the content of the vlogs. Would love to get to meet u one day for a blast in cars that u get to drive and u seem like a genuine guy. Fare play bro im a supporter anyway u have to give credit to him and the time energy sacrifice and effort required to keep up with what u do respect 👊👍☝
Tbh i think this Golf R might win the race , look at how it accelerates with somuch grip the way Calvin gets pushed back into his seat.. Ricky's M4 isnt like that. I think up to around 70mp/h this R is going to be winning then most likely the M4 will smoke it by fourth gear.
@@ericishappy1979 I've had my fair share of MK4 Golfs and I've had to do a wheel bearing in almost all of them. All lowered on mid range coilovers, so that was putting more strain on them, such an unbearable sound though!
TranceJam00 id say tge m4 will make calvins look stock. That's if rick remembers his meth but then calvins prob got that Ribena looking stuff . You know the tesco 99 fuel with the 6 bottle makes in 105 . But the golf being a 4 cylinders single turbo is still fast but the 6 cylinders twin turbo will be to much. I wonder if they notice how weird it feel driving on the outher side of the road.
What do you lot reckon? M4 or Golf R?
We’re hoping to get the video up on Ricky’s channel this Sunday so look out for that.
Give me a follow on insta @calvinscardiary
Calvin's Car Diary be nice if the golf does the bmw if not I ain’t going for 500/600 bhp in my gold R
Calvin's Car Diary of the M4 can put the power down it’s gone ! But maybe the R can get off the line and create a gap the BMW can’t close
M4 all day but i think golf r will hold its own.
Calvin's Car Diary brilliant video . Id go for thinner tyres ideally if its a straight . But you get him easy on some bends with low pros . The golf should still beat him .

I think the M4 is going to leave you standing now Calvin, unless it’s wet
Video should hopefully go live sunday
Good job I'm on nights then
LivingLifeFast where’s the race going to be so I can show you both what time it is???
money on ricky
@@navg2735 You best be come on a R1 or bugatti g haha
Ricky name me a place and time il be there looking at both of you in my rear view mirror 😂😂😂
My new res delete has caused my clutch to slip! LOL... No it didn't. A 600+ HP tune did that.
That m4 smocked a 850hp supra, I wish you luck Calve
true that m4 was quicker than the supra but your not accounting the auto gearbox and the weight differences. the golf definitely gonna loose i think still
cam I think the golf will get hammered to. 0-60 might be the only benefit of the golf r.
The gearbox diffrence was the defining factor of that race
It sounds like a wheel bearing need to change
I was thinking the exact same thing then saw you'd said it too😂
I was just about to say that too
same man can hear that whining
That whining could also be the box...
@MSi GS70 6QE

You'll need more power to keep up with the super m4 mate. Just be careful you don't blow the engine up! What about some nos?
I think you need to do a race in the dry and then in the wet to see the difference. It’s pretty impressive both cars are running the power they are on mainly stock drive trains
C'mon, that lower power map has a near identical torque curve, just slightly less of it, all that's been done is boost has been reduced by 5-6psi!
That is amazing power for a 2l turbo 4 pot..well done young calvin. Make sure you race ricky from a standing start too... He'll have no chance
I have a stage 700bhp+ gtr could I join the race ?
Adam Cutter savage bro
What torque you running
I have a GSXR1000....... Can I join in too!? 😝
You anywhere near bristol
Ive got a raleigh activator with a pop carton in the spokes to make it sound like a mx bike. I'll see yous at the finish line😁👌
Would still like to see more about the cars you buy just like before you got the golf r
Ricky sounds like he’s got some erb going on
Chill day yea 😎
Matt Gayler 😂🤣🤣
From a Dig you got him all day with the AWD but from a 40 roll he might have ya champ. I can’t wait too the race!
Race him at Santa Pod in the wet and you'll have him, come to think of it I would probably have him in my unmodded Golf R. If your doing rolling starts in the dry I think you're going to struggle to keep up.
That bearing man!!!

That S3 was pretty epic mate.
Get rid of those Kumho ditch finders get some proper rubber on!
I’ll join you for the race 2018 Yamaha R1M ?!😂
If its damp then the R every time which everyone will know anyway rwd vs haldex.

You two are such a comedy act
two totally different cars now, the golf is the best from the digs and a 1/4 mile run and country roads, the m4 a straight rolling start top end beast
Yes Calvin, well that race has already happened yeah. 1st, 2nd 3rd all about Golf R, then block the road innit 👍
Anyone else notices when Calvin's on the motorway he likes to check cars on his right

To make it a fair race u need to do a standing 1/4 , m4 has aload more power and torque but u have the awd
the Beemer will start to pull hard mid to top range, really don't think the golf will have the legs to stay with it...... You'd best hope for a damp/wet day...... Keep her lit
You need 700BHP to stand a chance against LLF’s car 🚗
Throw in some 102 or 105 and high power map. I reckon it will be very close.
Two guys havin a laugh along the way cracking videos you guys best of luck to you both

Love the car really big fan of the r but I think it would look better a bit lower
That car sounds like it’s going to explode on the motorway, the words knackered comes to mind...
I find it amusing to watch people rubber necking at you when you keep undertaking them haha
What shade of blue is your Golf R, bro? Mine is Lapiz Blue!
I don’t think M4 stand a chance even in the dry. Good Luck Calv and the Golf R!!
Riaz Ali that m4 left a 850hp supra 😂😂
but Calvin wasn’t driving the Supra was he?😄😄
I don’t get it? 585bhp on pump fuel and that’s you saying more power? 3 weeks ago the car was 600bhp and it was 600bhp when you bought it from Arthur so how come it’s less than 600 now with more power?

Blowing into the next gear that's new one for me
You forgot to change your license plate to "SAVAGE" plain n simple Calvin! From a GTI Clubsport owner! 👍
Ricky’s M4 gonna be hard to beat!
I think golf r will get the jump but the m4 will catch up quick with top end power
You and Ricky have got me going to VRS next week, all these videos, it was rude not to! Stage 1 and few other bits 😳
Calvin can you send link to the top you’re wearing, that one looks more of a shining finish to the ones I can see on your site?
The pure turbo modded m4 will leave you standing
Super M4 will dust u im afraid Calvin. Be a good watch though.
Who ever loses should be the other person's cameraman for a week.
Great videos. Sounds like a wheel bearings gone on that courtesy golf! Looking forward to your next video. Cheers, Jon.
100-200 low 5’s for hybrid m4’s he will destroy you
Your visuals are stupidly sick bro like the content of the vlogs. Would love to get to meet u one day for a blast in cars that u get to drive and u seem like a genuine guy. Fare play bro im a supporter anyway u have to give credit to him and the time energy sacrifice and effort required to keep up with what u do respect 👊👍☝
Call bro on rolling race the M4 will make the 7R look like a joke but stationary start you got it.
Yes mate keep up the good work wen is your brother doing his youtube channel
Calvin Calvin Calvin have you not seen how leathel Ricky’s super m4 is you would need quad turbo to beat it
Love that hoodie. Hopefully it gets released with full color logo.
So what power was it when he raced you previous? And to help out, get them back seats out! Lol, It’s easy enough...
is that a wheel bearing noise in the background in this video?
You're getting smoked but that's hardly anything to feel bad about the m4 is mental, still love the R
Go for it Calvin new racing clutch more power make it the UK's fast golf r you'll get your money back
Tbh i think this Golf R might win the race , look at how it accelerates with somuch grip the way Calvin gets pushed back into his seat.. Ricky's M4 isnt like that. I think up to around 70mp/h this R is going to be winning then most likely the M4 will smoke it by fourth gear.
Calvin would you do a video just focusing on best daily’s with easy tuning mods?
Please lower the suspension on the Golf R bro.🙆🏽♂️
Man like Ricky, Man like Calvin Big up to you lot bruv
I see you are running Kumho tyres, what's your take on them Calvin? I've always ran Good Year F1s
Are you still running standard brakes??
Still getting gapped 🤭
#Vmax 200 23rd March...?
Calvin, mate what's the 0-60 time at that power ?
Excited for this Calvin, gunna be a bloody good watch can’t wait 😎
If it's dry and from rolling I think ricks M4 will pull it back and pass the.:R if it's from stand still I don't think he can catch the.:R
Stationary start Calvin rolling start 2nd or 3rd gear Ricky.
You’ve got to be realistic about massive power from a small engine and the reliability and longevity.
I do like the golf but that m4 is fast ! I think the m4 has the win 👍
Golf wins on acceleration up to 130mph and M4 will win top end 130mph+
Good estimate I think. I hope they do a standing start AND a rolling race.
So do I. Just like the CarWow Channel does.
I recon it's gunna be a good race you got the weight thing on ur side but i recon if ricky gets the power down i think he'll just take ya.
What's the mpg like on this? My s4 b9 is thirsty and mines standard..
That wheel bearing would drive me insane!
It's driving me insane listening to it on the video lol

Come on Ricky you can do it . Sorry Calvin got to back a brother 😂😂👊🏿
Come on calvin you can beat him !
Sorry Ricky gotta help a Bro out !
Calvin is part nigerian so he is a brother. Haha
That's the only reason you back someone ?¿
You never heard of a sense of humour lad. Jokes me a deal with .
Another racist black guy
I reckon you'll beat the m4 up until about 120
TranceJam00 id say tge m4 will make calvins look stock. That's if rick remembers his meth but then calvins prob got that Ribena looking stuff .

120 you must be mad
@@nash3001 just watched the video wow the m4 is rapid
Calvin you will take him off the line, but once that M4 is in 3rd gear its going to smoke the golf! sorry man but thats got some serious power
Even how much i like the Golf I must say the M4 will lead the race.
Why you running kuhmo ecstas on such a nice powerful car?
You need to do the exterior of the golf R, it’s Seriously lacking g
Race on 👍 ps what's that whining noise in your car wheel bearing
super m4 nexted level
What’s the song when you get to vrs?
Displacement is King
... sadly!
Man like calvin smashing this content 👍
The 18'' R wheels make me feel sick!!! Please get the 19'' on!!!
The 18/ 40/ 235 tyres are probably more suited for high power street racers.
The wheel bearing is screaming on that mk4 golf haha
gonna be close but i`m feeling the M4 drive carefully !!
Golf will easy launch off the line faster but the m4 will go past once it grips
Dean Clark about 85
Where are u doing the race ? U should sell tickets
Pulling like a train 💪🏻🤩
Golf R has it in the bag 👍🏻
