This series is the best. I love all the sound effects and filmography. I watch plenty of high dollar KZbin builders and none of them have what you have. I'd rather watch a video like this everyday then see some super expensive unrealistic build that has too much horsepower for no reason. This is the content I crave. Something real, relatable, light hearted, and fun. Not 37 sponsors and trying to be fast enough to finish it in a month. Thanks for the content bro I really appreciate and I hope to see more soon!

It is genuinely so nice to see someone do an install video and leave the realistic stuff in there. The number of hours I've spent looking at instructions and saying "is that it? It goes like that?" Is too many to count. And seeing other people who have influence and followings show that part and not just a cool montage of the easy parts and then snapping their fingers and it being done was awesome. Makes me feel not as bad when I'm doing stuff myself. 10/10 video!

As an owner of several MK4 Golfs and NB from the Midwest. I know the struggle working on these old weathered cars. I have learned my lesson and replaced every TTY bolt that I touch and chase the threads before installing the new bolts. Also, anti-seize is your friend. Some bolts are surprisingly expensive but if the old bolt fails, the damage would most likely end up costing more than the bolts and having to re-do again whatever you touched would F suck.

Sometimes I’m surprised at how few tools some people have, sometimes you gotta struggle to get a set of coilovers in with basic stuff. I have that same Pittsburg socket set, love it! Just wish it had deep well metric sockets 3/8 drive Rust sucks. And coilovers settling… forgot about that on my rsx. Rear needs to go up lol.

@@DakotaStone my top 3 favorite tools: Milwaukee electric 1/2” high torque m18 fuel impact gun. $200-300 with battery. Can loosen almost any bolt besides Honda crank pulley bolts(weighted socket needed lol) Milwaukee electric ratchet fuel m12 3/8” drive. Awesome as it’s a strong ratchet that can probably break free any bolt under 70 ft lbs then you use the electric bit to spin it off(brake jobs are a dream) Milwaukee hackzall any battery size. Cuts exhaust, frame, body stuff and is one hand useable. $500 for all 3 in their best forms on a good deal day at fleet farm haha. Keep it up dude!
