Just started watching because of the garage reno videos, and I am hooked! I'm adding this to my must watch saturday morning routine. Right next to Speed Academy and Gears & Gasoline Excuse me while I go binge watch old episodes (or should I call them short films because the quality is so good?)
So happy for you. This is happening for me Tuesday when my fuel pump shows up. Picked up another B5 S4, fully sorted RS4 OEM Stg 3 build with full paperwork history including original window sticker.. but it had a no start issue and I paid almost nothing for it. Confirmed it was fuel pump, swapped the pump from my other B5 and bam. Every now and then you score a big win. Congratulations.
My guy literally performed the Italian tune up on the first drive 😂, I love it. Jokes aside, after buying my second b5 i noticed that they brake less the harder you drive them, Crazy.
usually I watch YT in the background... your videos? full undivided attention. They're movies anyways... So happy the beast lives. makes me want to tear into and refresh my 05 vw touareg with the same v8 (sans turbos). such a fun suv despite only getting 15mpg. Keep on keeping on and I'll keep clicking.
Watching your videos reminds me of my time starting to build, and modify cars. Slowly growing skills and knowledge. It's a great trip down memory lane every Saturday morning. Keep up the great work, it's more appreciated than you know.
The world is out to get me been watching the entire series and I bought my car around the same time you did. youre out here enjoying the new old car and my shit box sitting outside rusting and collecting leaves from the tree it’s parked under this some bullshit
I used to watch a car realted yt a lot. But for a while, I haven"t came across a channel, that gets me this excited when uploads. Literally checking yt after work for you to upload. Love the content Hunter. Love your passion, the quality, the little details on each video, and the acting.
@@HunterDirection Awesome! It's always nice to be able to drive to troubleshoot, it's hard to work through suspension or drivetrain issues when the car is in the air.
I'm so happy to see this thing running!! Seeing it run just motivates me more ti fix my C5 Allroad, timing belt snapped so the heads are at the shop gettinf sone new valves and whatnot. Figure while the engines out, might as well go k04. I miss my avant so much
I'm happy that it works and what a nice car and sound.🤩 By the way, I noticed a happier voice than usual, maybe because it was the final step in running it on the road...😄
Hunter, congratulations on your accomplishments and getting out of the garage, but: - you don't install new brake discs on rusted hubs, - it seems that the rubber cover of the steering tip is damaged, - leave the car on the old factory rims, they fit the sporty character of the car. Good job, PS. you will not earn fuel with such a ride.
Love the videos! Very exciting about your car running!!! I would like to see more of you talking on the videos instead of voiceover throughout the video, like you used to do it before, it makes it a like more personal and in touch with you (the vlogger). Just a little input from a frequent viewer.
I go back and forth on that alot. I honestly am leaning towards doing an additional series in parallel with each main episode that has more of a vlog feel. Right now I really like the internal monologue short film style these currently have and it would be hard to merge the two.
Oh it's definitely not over haha. The plan is to manual swap and do a full suspension build! But I'll work on some other projects first now that the car can be moved!
Very nice both the work and video, I still can't wait for you to do the golf/rabbbit. Im after ordering a few bits for my daewoo lacceti so hopefully that'll go well
I can't wait either. I know that's going to be a crazy process so I'm thinking I'll take a couple weeks to get some of the other cars polished up first. E30 cosmetics, s4 turbos and whatnot
@@Saynweeb I have a halation node in my grades but I will definitely play with lowering the levels where it is activated at. I had to turn the limiter way up a while back because resolve seems to add it way too liberally haha.
@@Rahul-li8je I definitely suggest pulling the door card off and seeing if the metal wire on the regulator has destroyed itself. Mine were pretty much all broken. Super fast to check too!
Not even an Audi guy. And am loving this.
I originally came for the B5 content, specifically to get an opinion on a short shift, and i stayed for the incredible cinematography
More B5 soon! The S6 was making it pretty hard to swap between projects but now we can plan out turbos!
It’s a good day when hunter uploads.
@@RyanFannon-fy1yf that means a to me! Thank you!
can't agree more!
The s6 turned out killer bud. The V8 sounds better than the radio for sure 😂
@@whoodytree2512ö
Yes I agree, but it's time for some 1.8t content. Let's get that TT in the shots 🤣👌

That’s awesome, you got it up n running with a quickness… especially in the realm of “project cars”🤜🏼🤛🏼
I'm pretty stoked with how it's driving so far! Thank you for the support!
I really enjoy your style. I get entertained, educated AND I get some nuggets of knowledge that really make me think. Keep up the great work!
Leaving my obligatory comment to boost engagement. Your cinematography is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing your passion with us!
@22:50 is what it’s all about! congratulations🎉
Sounded amazing 😮

Good on ya Hunter! That was a lot of work!!!!
Thank you for the support!
I really hope your channel grows insanely popular. You put so much work into these videos and your filmmaking is flawless!
My Saturdays are much better watching your master piece videos. Keep up the hard work.
What a payoff. I'm so pleased that it's as good as it is considering the cosmetic, alignment, and tire issues. Well done and congrats.
Good work! Been watching for a year and change and you are the most criminally underrated car content out there!

came for the TT, stayed for the production skills
Congrats on the first drive! Love the video format / “feel” - been following since the beginning and your videos are only getting better.
Watching your videos reminds me of my time starting to build, and modify cars. Slowly growing skills and knowledge. It's a great trip down memory lane every Saturday morning. Keep up the great work, it's more appreciated than you know.
Watch-spotting my way through this series has been fun 🤙
Haha I still need to make another addition to my watch collection this year but I haven't narrowed it down yet.
I think I smiled bigger than you did when you opened it up the first time! Congrats!
Haha that's awesome! Thank you so much for the support!
Congratz on getting it running. With he mechanics out of the way,the fun part of cleaning/modding can start.
always a joy to see your videos pop up on saturday
Super excited to the the first run, the process of getting there was amazing to watch. Love those vids man keep it up 🤌
Connecting Bluetooth to the new whip is always a christening 😂 you looks so happy too
Right haha. Too bad the stereo is so bad 😂
The world is out to get me been watching the entire series and I bought my car around the same time you did. youre out here enjoying the new old car and my shit box sitting outside rusting and collecting leaves from the tree it’s parked under this some bullshit
So awesome you got this gem up and running! I wish my B6 was a long roof!
A good ol' Italian tune up.. love your watches

Hey thank you. That means a ton to me! Right now with my main job I can only manage one upload a week time wise. But I haven't missed a Saturday yet!
@@HunterDirectionFully understandable! At least I got something to wait for weekly.
Glad to see all your hard work on the S6 paid off! Makes me want one even more now.
It's not perfect but it's a ton of fun so far! I'm excited to learn what else needs fixing while working on another project too!
@@HunterDirection Awesome! It's always nice to be able to drive to troubleshoot, it's hard to work through suspension or drivetrain issues when the car is in the air.
I still can't believe that this is a one man production. The videography, the voiceover it's just fantastic
Haha thank you! I'm always trying to learn to make it better so if you ever have suggestions let me know!
@@HunterDirectionjust keep it up like this.
So cool finally seeing you driving that! Good job!
Holy smokes, it rips so hard haha
great job!!
I remember first drive from engine tear downs. Honestly top 10 best feeling to hear and feel things come back to life.
I bet this feeling will be 10x stronger on my gti shell since it's going to be so custom haha
I'm so happy to see this thing running!!
Seeing it run just motivates me more ti fix my C5 Allroad, timing belt snapped so the heads are at the shop gettinf sone new valves and whatnot.
Figure while the engines out, might as well go k04.
I miss my avant so much
Dude, such a good job! So satisfying to get someone project they have given up back up and running🤩
Love your videos, glad to see it running. Good job!
Awesome to see hard work thoroughly paid off!
Ronald Finger sent me here… I think as a diversion… it worked. Sub’ed.
Your cinematography is improving with every video! I look forward to every episode man, keep it up
I am glad to hear that! I spent a lot of time learning so that is reassuring!
@@HunterDirection the results are there, these episodes are fantastic
I am so happy to see it on the road, good job dude!
I'm happy that it works and what a nice car and sound.🤩
By the way, I noticed a happier voice than usual, maybe because it was the final step in running it on the road...😄
Amazing as always
Ps humongous respect for being able to set deadlines
P.S.+ The best upgrade is getting back to functional - is the wisdom in itself
Really want to do something like this myself but can’t right now, because life! Nice to see someone able to do it though!
Great show. Thanks for sharing. 😀
It sounds great! Well done 👍
Thank you!
Hunter, congratulations on your accomplishments and getting out of the garage, but:
- you don't install new brake discs on rusted hubs,
- it seems that the rubber cover of the steering tip is damaged,
- leave the car on the old factory rims, they fit the sporty character of the car.

Icon!!!! Best tool for the price

2.7t swap is the way to go on this with RS6 turbos and 6MT.. good video
Glad to see it on the road!
Me too haha!
Perfect start to Saturday let’s go 😤
Bro you’re goated keep up the great work
So sick man
Keep the vids coming mr hunter!
Absolutely!
I’m sad this rebuild series is technically over, but I can’t wait to see more! I can’t wait to see what you do with the S6
Oh it's definitely not over haha. The plan is to manual swap and do a full suspension build! But I'll work on some other projects first now that the car can be moved!
@@HunterDirection Keep them coming man! Your quality is great and you’re learning and getting into it in so much detail
Just in time. Been waiting all day from sunny South Africa. 🙂
@@BuyongoPhiri I've always wanted to visit there. A friend from college was from there and made it sound awesome!
@HunterDirection great weather, friendly people, and awesome car culture. You'd definitely enjoy it.
Lovely
This car is so dang cool. I want one now. ):
This gives me motivation to work on my mk4 golf wagon. 1.8t Aum 6 speed swap
@@carnationke4630 that sounds so dope! I'm excited to toss rods into my TT this year!
Nice. Glad it runs.
Very nice both the work and video, I still can't wait for you to do the golf/rabbbit. Im after ordering a few bits for my daewoo lacceti so hopefully that'll go well

Have you heard of the radio show and podcast Car Talk? I think you would like it. Very entertaining and good diagnostics on cars.
another weekend another hunter direction video this summer is going by fast w video
I love your videos man! I would like to suggest adding halation to your color grading, it will enhance the film effect.
@@Saynweeb I have a halation node in my grades but I will definitely play with lowering the levels where it is activated at. I had to turn the limiter way up a while back because resolve seems to add it way too liberally haha.
Ok I must know the name of the background song at the beginning - majestic, elegant, classic!
I come for the cars, stay to figure out what every watch in his collection is from close up shots.
That's awesome haha. The vintage Seiko is the latest if you're curious!
@@HunterDirection Nice. I love cars and watches so your channel is perfect for me!
Are you confident you have that tie rod tight ? Maybe time for a tie rod tool 😅 Amazon have cheap ones that work pretty good
👍🏼👍🏼
What about bleeding the brakes? Who knows if it’s absorb moisture
👍🍻👌❤❤❤
Hello I have a problem on my s4 whit the windows it doesn’t work any advice?
@@Rahul-li8je I definitely suggest pulling the door card off and seeing if the metal wire on the regulator has destroyed itself. Mine were pretty much all broken. Super fast to check too!
@@HunterDirection thank you soo much il check it!
To make this car the ultimate experience, manual swap
100% the plan! Got some other projects first though haha
