UroTuning Announces INNFAB Tubular Subframe kit for Mk4 Golf and Jetta Applications

UroTuning is proud to introduce the all new Tubular Subframe from INNFAB for the VW Mk4 Golf / Jetta models.

The INNFAB VW MK4 tubular subframe is a high strength light weight replacement of the factory subframe with raised suspension geometry.

The control arm mounts and steering rack are raised 1″ to help restore the optimal suspension geometry that is lost when lowering the ride height of the vehicle. The raised geometry also provides additional ground clearance as it sits higher than the unibody frame rails of the car.

It includes a billet aluminum transmission mount that can be flipped for use with and without motor mount spacers. If performance and low center of gravity is your ultimate goal, the subframe can be installed with the motor in the stock position. If you are looking to raise the motor for increased ground clearance and low ride height drivability, the transmission mount can be flipped and installed along with motor mount spacers.

The installation is bolt on with some minimal trimming required. The opening in the firewall for the steering mount shaft needs enlarged approximately 1/4″. Large enough to allow the steering rack to move up 1″ up into the opening. The subframe includes a provision for mounting the factory or aftermarket sway bar. The OEM subframe and transmission mount weigh 26.04 lbs while the innfab tubular subframe and transmisison mount weighs 18.25 lbs; a weight savings of 7.79 lbs.

Compatible with OEM control arms as well as INNFAB tubular control arms. For those on air aiming to lay the unibody on the ground, other than adequate struts and wheel clearance, we recommend our control arms, because the stock control arms may bind/ hit the unibody. The car must also be notched on both sides for the axles, and the tie rods must be notched for or modified to allow clearance.
mk4-subframe-3
All necessary hardware for installation included.

NOTE: The subframe could also be installed in a non-raised configuration with additional Spacers and alternate hardware. This would leave the control arm mounting positions and steering rack in their stock positions and require no modifications.

PRE-ORDER: We are currently taking Pre-Orders for the initial production run

Estimated Completion and Ship Date for pre-orders is mid to late March. Order now to reserve yours and avoid waiting several months for the next production run.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...
