034Motorsport Handling Packages contain staged upgrade packages specifically tailored for the MK7/7.5 Volkswagen Golf R. The 034Motorsport Handling Packages contain curated products from the expansive 034Motorsport catalog, put together by the experienced 034Motorsport Engineering Team to offer staged handling upgrades to best optimize the handling performance of the MK7/7.5 Volkswagen Golf R!
Looking for a noticeable improvement in grip and handling without sacrificing the comfort and usability of your daily driver? The Stage 1 Handling Package is the ideal starting point for MK7/MK7.5 Golf R owners who want sharper, more controlled handling while maintaining a comfortable street-friendly ride.
The Stage 1 Handling Package includes the first modifications 034Motorsport recommends for improving the platform's handling performance: Dynamic+ Lowering Springs, Density Line Bump Stops, the Dynamic+ Adjustable Rear Sway Bar, and Dynamic+ Front & Rear End Links.
Together, these upgrades drastically reduce body roll and understeer for a more confident driving experience. Dynamic+ Lowering Springs provide an aggressive yet functional stance, eliminating the factory negative rake and optimizing wheel gap while maintaining comfortable ride quality and proper suspension travel with the included Density Line Bump Stops.
Looking to turn it up a notch for spirited street driving or track use? The Stage 2 Handling Package builds on the Stage 1 upgrades with the 034Motorsport Spherical Rear Trailing Arm Kit and Dynamic+ RCO Control Arms, adding greater precision, adjustability, and control for drivers who want to push their Golf R further.
Factory rubber rear trailing arm bushings can deflect under load, altering the rear suspension geometry and making the rear end feel vague and loose, which can contribute to increased understeer. The 034Motorsport Spherical Trailing Arm Kit replaces that deflection with precise spherical bearings that allow proper articulation while maintaining consistent suspension geometry, delivering sharper handling and a more confidence-inspiring road feel.
The Dynamic+ RCO Control Arms complement the spherical trailing arms with increased adjustability and reduced weight. Their forged aluminum construction saves 1.5 lbs per corner while providing an additional 0.5° of caster and approximately 1.2° of additional negative camber adjustment. Together, these upgrades deliver sharper steering response, increased grip, and greater stability through turns without sacrificing comfort.
The Stage 1 and Stage 2 Handling Packages provide a strong foundation for improving the handling of your MK7/MK7.5 Golf R, but there’s plenty of room to customize and continue building your suspension setup based on your driving style, handling goals, and desired level of adjustability.
Dynamic+ Front Sway Bar
Add additional roll stiffness to the front suspension for reduced front body roll and more precise turn-in during aggressive cornering. This is a natural next step for drivers looking to further tune the car's handling balance beyond the Stage 1/2 setup and optimize for balanced track-driving behavior.
Camster Mounts
Increase front-end camber and caster within a fixed, performance-oriented top mount upgrade. This add-on is especially beneficial for drivers seeking greater front-end grip and improved tire contact during cornering, particularly for more aggressive street cornering or track driving. This add-on also increases tire clearance to the fender, allowing for wider front tires without rubbing.
Density Line Adjustable Rear Control Arms
Add rear camber adjustment to fine-tune alignment and optimize tire contact. Particularly useful for lowered vehicles or drivers looking to dial in rear suspension geometry for more aggressive street and track use.
Density Line Adjustable Rear Toe Arms
Add rear toe adjustment for more precise alignment tuning and handling balance. These are especially useful when additional suspension modifications or aggressive alignment settings require more control over rear toe.
