In this episode of bought not built - we attempt to take someone else's project car and make it feel a little more my-own. What do you think? LZMFG.com
Just the Desmond sticker would be perfect. Also, those blacked out lights on the front bumper would look so much better clear, especially if you're going with the more subtle factory lip.
You’re not getting old. You just have taste. It needs to sound super nice not nasty. The new exhaust sounds very nice and clean to me. Smooth. Comparing it to a 2 stroke is good. I love the sound of a nicely tuned 2 stroke. I say add the stickers to the wheels.
Thank you. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who wasn't a fan of the existing exhaust. It sounds way better now. Total dirt bike sound but also a little throatier at lower rpm. This was one of my dream cars growing up. I'm a little older than you so that's why. You have slowly but surely gotten a wickedercand wickeder.
Adam - go check out the technology in those Borg Warner EFR turbos! Imo more advanced than pretty much anything out there and definitely helps explain why you enjoy the responsiveness ;)
after watching videos of lz and oakes for 5 plus years i’ve learned so much about cars. I still have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to rims and fitment numbers wise haha. I’ve always wanted a project car to wrench on but I can’t afford it. Its nice to live through this though haha. Ik many can relate. one day ill have my mk3 supra!
Mad respect for the professional protection of the brand. Same respect to Tim for a line explanation. Huge congrats on the success! From rallying a Gallardo to brand sponsor of the rally of all rallys Gumball 3000!❤
I think for the stickers, just do the Evo stickers. It keeps it sort of simple, the red ties in with the brakes and the marker lights, and it still shows that they're legit not just knock offs. That's just my opinion but I think that'd look sick 🤷♂️
From a community that was pretty much only known for their blueberries and shores to now a community that supports creators and small businesses. We all appreciate the story that was told today. See you in the shop PBPW!
Same exact thing that I had with my DS's on my RX-8. Straight out of the box, the rear settled perfectly and the front was super low. I think I did 4 full turns out on the front and it raised it perfectly
I still can’t believe how far you’ve come from back in the day just drifting in free time way before fd,hell you even came to my city to ride once I do believe webisode 44 (when you went to a1 cycle)😂
I like the no sticker look, as you said, nice clean look. Thanks for the heads up about Collete. Was looking for a live stream from the track, didn't find one. Hopefully they have one tomorrow.
I'm with you on the tone of the current exhaust, and I'm pausing and commenting before i know what's going on, but damn man i love the look of those bronze Work's on that Yellow 🥺😩
No stickers look for sure. I would love to see those wheels in white that would be dope also I'm on the same boat when it comes to sound. There's like range of sound between stock and extra loud, raspy sound and somewhere between that there's perfect, clean not too loud tone which is perfect imo.
STICKERS! Turn it into the Akuri Red Suns first stage RX-7 from Initial D. It already looks a lot like that car. Plus, you are a pro drifter. Show some love to the drift world with a car from Initial D.
If anyone ever questioned how much Adam cares about the quality look of his vehicles, he just made a comment about possibly scratching the exhaust can lol. That’s Ian incredible eye for detail.
Tailgating your mom T-shirts are a must
fo sho
I second that statement. That shirt is definitely a must
Yes please
Has to be done
Fo sho
No stickers for the wheels is super clean. I vote no stickers. Was dope meeting you at World Tour, thanks for signing the S15 deck!
agreed
Stickers are for 10 yr olds
Agree
No sticker agreed
NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! STYCKERRRRRR$$$$$$$$$$ZZZZZZZZ!?

Very valid take👑
I like the idea of just the "Desmond" sticker on the wheels. Would look super classy!
facts
stickers are never classy. in any situation
Agreed, one of my all time favorite rims but they look a little boring without a brand.
Nah just the EVO sticker no Desmond
@@KableTac speak for yourself
I vote yes on the stickers. And on a side note, what's the story with that 911 in the background 👀
I personally love the stickers on the regas and think they look unfinished without them. I vote go for both stickers on it.
Passenger fender sure looks like it got waffled at some point 😂
What does that mean?
You meen driver side.. lol
Agreed. I couldn't stop looking at it
Someone had to say it 🥲
Literally the only thing I could focus on 😂
Sticker looks clean with the red calipers!
God i love them wheels, I think just with the Desmond would just make it not look like its reps like you said.

Major props for giving your FD RX7 a makeover!
Love watching you, Adam I have never been able to go to any of your events but one day I will. Thank you for always making my day.
The stickers give it a better look for sure, preferably just the red/black ones. It looks cheap without them
Weirdly it kinda looks like a car from a video game without the stickers. The wheels have a weird reflection or something that's throwing me off.
The Rega’s look sick with no stickers, love the clean 17 look
Another beast of a car added to your collection , so sick man !!!
I just imagine you and Jimmy cruisin around in your yellow fd's
Adam - go check out the technology in those Borg Warner EFR turbos! Imo more advanced than pretty much anything out there and definitely helps explain why you enjoy the responsiveness ;)
Except he's sponsored/partnered with Honeywell-Garrett
Keep with the clean look with no sticker and those spacers made the fitment look so much cleaner with those wheels

Definitely run the stickers 🙏🏽
Big sticker guy here 🔥💯 still think it looks clean and would be cool if you just did the one but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!

How could you not like the sound of this thing!
just have the desmond sticker on the wheels i think thats very clean. looks good without it but needs a little contrast to the skirts
+1
I think for the stickers, just do the Evo stickers. It keeps it sort of simple, the red ties in with the brakes and the marker lights, and it still shows that they're legit not just knock offs. That's just my opinion but I think that'd look sick 🤷♂️
Man I love how you and Mike interact.
The air-cooler in the background is chef kiss
Stickers look sick, go for it!
Agree
no stickers, clean look
Love the exhaust and the new wheels look perfect.
you motivated me to start my own channel to share my passion with more people. Thank you Adam.
i like the no sticker look
Honestly, looked way better on the CE’s, bronze is clean and 18’s fill out the poorly rolled fenders better.
Love HKS. Installed on my e30 and my Porsche 944. I think it’s that perfect deep sound without rasp
944 brother.
New wheels look so much better. 100% add stickers.
Can’t wait for that lip to go.
Definitely the stickers. Agree on them looking like reps without. And they’ll fit in with the red callipers
Definitely needs the stickers on the wheels🔥
Can't wait to see that painted.
I really like the look of the stickers especially with the red calipers I think it’s still a bit subtle
2nd like lets go
Stickers will look really nice!!
Love this car of yours so much
Full Stickers, the red in the Evo matches the brakes perfectly 👌
this car is so sick. Absolutely a dream car for me🤤 And the new exhaust sounds much better👌

The regas be hitting for sure!!!! The height with the regas even make the front lip look not so wierd
Just blessing us with all this rotary content i fucking love it
Stickers! And the guys mentioned, the tailgating your mom T-shirt has a Great Idea!!!
Awesome vid Adam! ❤
Same exact thing that I had with my DS's on my RX-8. Straight out of the box, the rear settled perfectly and the front was super low. I think I did 4 full turns out on the front and it raised it perfectly
Bro your styling is fly fd looking great
The fd sounds so amazing at idle 🤤
Welcome to the EFR life. I know you’re a big Garrett guy, but the EFR really is unmatched on the transient response
Great exhaust choice fresh HKS
Great to se the FD again.🎉
Stickers is a must for the understated JDM look
Stickers on the wheels for sure!
Love the fd hope to see more, and get one myself someday.
Evo sticker on the Regas for sure dude !
Those wheels are so good
Man I actually loved those wheels on there the perfect bronze wheels
I still can’t believe how far you’ve come from back in the day just drifting in free time way before fd,hell you even came to my city to ride once I do believe webisode 44 (when you went to a1 cycle)😂
I was thinking the same about the Og bronze on the CEs would have made those rims keepers on by the car. The Regas look dope.
Sticker for sure 😎👍
I like the no sticker look, as you said, nice clean look. Thanks for the heads up about Collete. Was looking for a live stream from the track, didn't find one. Hopefully they have one tomorrow.
I'm with you on the tone of the current exhaust, and I'm pausing and commenting before i know what's going on, but damn man i love the look of those bronze Work's on that Yellow 🥺😩
FD definitely worth keeping.
Stickers for sure!

Plus, you are a pro drifter. Show some love to the drift world with a car from Initial D.
the FD sounds SO MUCH BETTER with the new exhaust setup
I dig the clean no stickers look on the wheels tbh
those 5 spoke look gorgeous
It sounds sick, keep it. Like it is
The Red accents on the stickers look good with the Calipers
Also bud have fucking fun both of you. Enjoy Ireland. Enjoy your tour and we're dying for the next vid. Love you guys.
Love the look.. definitely no stickers.👌
That Porsche in the back looks nice ngl👀🔥…
Sticker goes well with the calipers
Definitely love the sticker look
No sticker. The clean look on that body style is amazing.
In this episode Adam LZ discovers the magic of EFR's super light Titanium Aluminide exhaust wheel on a rotary..
No stickers are a must, the cleaner look on this color paint, is waaaaaay more appealing!!!
Those wheels look so much better
You better show us that old school Porsche ASAP!!!!! I’m hype to see that
Desmond stickers look great
love the hkc carbon ti exhaust had one on my fozzy xt sounded mint
Woo-hoo "special friend" cleetus collab!! Can't wait!
P.s tire stickers not on looks cleaned but it does scream reps
This was my favorite car growing up.
If anyone ever questioned how much Adam cares about the quality look of his vehicles, he just made a comment about possibly scratching the exhaust can lol. That’s Ian incredible eye for detail.
Just the evo sticker, I think the pop of red is nice and something about the stickers just looks right
Stickers are the play. The red in the EVO of the sticker makes them pop in the right way, and I'm not usually a sticker on wheels guy.
Just the Desmond stickers on the wheels 👌
I love my HKS-Carbon Ti. It has a deeper tone but isn't to loud.
Looks awesome
Looks so much better without the bronze wheels!
stickers look good with the willwoods
Fd sounds sick now
The regas are on point, classic look in the best way, much more appropriate less hot boi look
