- Hey Everyone,
Today we are working on the E30! I've been collecting parts to fix the slow steering and the day is finally here. It’s a daunting job, but I think we should have all we need to get started. Too bad it also coincides with the biggest snow storm of the year! Hopefully it doesn’t cause us any trouble and we can get it done before the weather gets too bad.
Thank you for watching! Consider liking and subscribing to support me. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
The spinning BMW logo was a good laugh. Thanks for a good vid!
I love this series especially with the cinematic elements to it, def giving me some inspo on modding my e30.
Are you going to cinematically mod yours?
@@dedbeet5845 I might
Ne!
Sunday morning, hot coffee, and another chill and awesome video from Hunter. Life is good. Keep rocking bud 🤘🤘.
I'm stoked you are enjoying them so much! Thank you for the support!
Only found your channel yesterday and have since binged your E30 content. Awesome quality, and I'm excited to see where you take the project!
my God this is so beautiful a new format thank you !
This is a diy short film. Never seen such a format! Great writing brother!
Best car videos ever!
Hey that means alot to me! Thank you
Great cinematography!! And story telling 11:09 is the reality of working on stuff yourself E30 4 life! Love the challenge the car is , Its not for everyone but those who are willing to lay in power steering fluid
These videos are sublime. Exquisite scenery [the sort that drew me to first visit America in the1990s]; a young handsome technical genius; a sprinkling of philosophy and (the star of the show) the e30 green machine. [I long for that quarter panel to get painted green 😂] 💚
We appreciate your passion and talent with the spanner 🔧 & the camera 🎥 young American fellow.
Best E30 step by step and motivates us the E30 community
As an iX owner, a faster rack is something I wish I could experience. Funny enough, I didn't think it was an issue, but maybe once the car is up and running again I'll see what you mean. I might have to change plans and find a RWD E30 one day.
Absolutely love this playlist. I appreciate your cinematic quality, editing, narration, and above all - relatability.
Yes!!! The z3 rack is the best thing I've ever done to my e30. Love the series
It's an awesome upgrade for sure! Im stoked you are enjoying the series
Great video man I just got a 325es and looking to do this on it most of the videos are shown with the motor out of the car glad to see your can do it with it in!
The message of this came at a perfect time in my (uncertain) life. Plus there's an E30!! Thanks for sharing
Really love your channel man, it started with "oh look! this guy is also just a dude in a garage with a barely functional 225" and its blossomed into "this guy has more talent for cinematography, writing and editing than any* of the big car channels" and its so inspiring, can wait to see you hit 50k!
Dude how is this channel only at 9.2k? Do you have a Instagram you post on? If so you need to use that to boost your views. Your content is amazing and just like everyone that clicks on your videos we can't get enough of your content!!! Keep grinding I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into editing don't stop dude you will blow up eventually! Also the e30 content is the shit, keep it up!!!
you are the Christopher Nolan of the automotive mechanics world!
Wow that's some serious praise! I appreciate the comparison to any director let alone one as successful as Nolan😅 not quite there yet, but I'd love to make a feature someday haha. Tons to learn before that though.
Hunter your videos are absolutely terrific. I’m not working on my E30 for at least another full season and I’m watching yours like mine is in the garage. Thank you for DMing me about questions I had on the TT Platform you totally rock.
Hey I am always happy to help! Thank you a ton for the support! Excited to hear about how your e30 goes when you get to it!
Again a very entertaining and informative video! Thank you very much for your dedication to quality and detail!
I really appreciate your support! Thank you
Great video
Just checked availability of the enginemounts here in Germany. Many to choose from and with a 10er each side you're good 😅 (online not local)
love the content.
Thanks for another epicvideo. I didn't like the font :) , but loved all the rest. Bro, where you're going is forward, in quattro!
Thanks!
Hey you didn't have to do this but I really appreciate it! Thank you!
@@HunterDirection sorry it wasn’t more, but I wanted to try and help the creators that I like, so they can keep making great content.
what cam you use, looks pretty cinematic, I am guessing Blackmagic 4k
How did i not find your channel sooner?
Awesome work. Like the way the car is coming along. Do you have an LSD? If not might want to consider one. 3.73 is good. I did a e46 zhp rack in one car and e36 rack in another. You can actually do a pretty darn good alignment using a string method. E30 stock has only toe adjustment.
I think FCP euro has a video how to do it.
It's a 3.73 but it's open right now, trying to get him to swap one in 😉
Wow the quality of this video 😮💨🤘
I am glad you enjoyed!
I swapped in a regular E36 rack (3,4 turns) in my previous E30 and it was a night and day difference!
I would assume the Z3 feels insane.
It's a huge difference! Thank you a ton for the support!
@@HunterDirection Have you driven the car hard yet? I’ve done the swap and in a roundabout it feels like a go kart sort of fighting back. Had the tracking adjusted etc.
How does it feel to you?
That BMW always seems much easier to work on than the TT !! My TT is always a mission to do any work😂
Haha there is definitely a lot less in the way! Each car has it's own easy and difficult jobs though😅
Do you know if this same rack will fit early models ‘87?
Where did you find the z3 steering rack?
Which inner and outer tie rods were used?
Damn came here for a build series not a philosophical short film lol chill out…fun nonetheless
What is the part number to identify the rack?
What wheels are those? They look great!
They are a period correct marketplace find. I think they are inspired by the hartge tuning wheels, but I don't they are legit. I dig them though!
where did you find a z3 rack, I cant find one? good vid, I like that color
Said he got his at redline auto, was looking and found it in a lower comment.
How much was the steering rack? What company?
There are a couple places you can get them but I got mine from redline auto. They are priced on a case by case basis so each one will be differed based on condition.
@@HunterDirection thanks for the info!
whys the check panel going off?
It always does that until you press the check button on the roof haha. In my case I think it was low on washer fluid.
Bro ive been wanting to do this mod since the day i got my E30. Seems like it will be worth it after this.
It's a pretty fun upgrade for sure! Would suit how clean your car is for sure!
@@HunterDirection project for the future for sure. Where did you get the steering rack from?
i want more b5 stuff
Oh trust me... It's almost here. Starting a big b5 project next episode!
as you're building your b5, I am too. im getting the same seats you got, and getting some tte600 turbos for it. @@HunterDirection
Those brake cooling flex pipes didn't last long. What a shame
I know that surprised me too😅 at least the kit came with more to swap on and it's super cheap at hardware stores lol
Good work mate. I do miss the Audi content, selfishly.. 😊
@@Paulie_franga haha well plenty of it is in the works! New TT episode last week and a big S4 project starts next episode!
quality video, should wear some gloves
