the blue e36 deserves to sit in the upstairs lounge or on the side of a wall. important car to your driving progression.
I second this!
yeah, i agree... He was looking for the perfect candidate, thought about the S13, but even that he wasn't sure on
With the e36 as it is now, atleast make it look good and move it up the lounge, we'll never forget it
@@Leandro3065PTI think leaving it at the state that it’s in would make it better as an ornament honestly. Shows what he truly went through and put the car through
Or put it outside so when they drift the compound they see Adam’s most successful car
all tha memories
Thank you for the 3 new shop helper silkie roosters. glad to see you've got a replacement chassis and can keep the e36 going!
so nice to see you in the video 🙂
Nice seeing the old crew in the build clips.
THAT'S YOUR BOY RIGHT THERE!!! Sold you his project to keep the dream alive 🤝
Best of luck to you all getting the reshell done in time. You got it ✌️
On a good note Johan is such a good friend and employee , he seems very willing to help his friend do the impossible even if it means a lot of fab work for himself and even if it isn’t the most rational decision in their situation
Real. Hes truely an integral part of the team
It goes both ways adam seems like a good boss to have and it looks like Johan really enjoys his job
I'd walk on my hands and give him a backhanded HJ to have my english wheels in the corner and fab up drift car chasis and whatnot 😅
Johan is just as emotionally invested in that car as Adam is. He commented as soon as the car rolled into the shop after the wreck, that this was the first car he ever worked on for Adam. I think Johan understands and shares the emotional attachment that we all have to random hunks of metal.
ayooo
Honestly, the script writers went wild with this one.
But for real, so stoked you found a chassis so quick. Seeing the Phoenix E36 at the top of the podium would be amazing. Keep up the great work.
"Phoenix" would be a good name. Red/gold color scheme could go hard.

Adam: "Lost the sway bar."
Johan: "You lost the chassis."
Adam: "Hey!"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I dont know if he notice, he has a crack in his windshield..!! 🤣🤣🤣

@@rodrigobrunno That paint seen better days too :P
Seeing Joel's project be a part of a mad dash to is going to be insane to witness via videos, let alone to see run in 2 weeks! I'm sure I'll speak for any automotive enthusiast on the planet and say everyone's rooting for this underdog story. Please don't skip the good parts of the build up, and major shoutout to Joel for doing anything and everything to keep E36 superior in any way, shape, or form. If you haven't followed Joel on FB/IG, seen his builds/drifts, or got to meet him, you're missing out. Been a pleasure watching the homie glow up!
As someone who has raced many cars and been a part of big race teams. there's really only one thing that sets a team apart for others and that's how you bounce back from an accident or mistakes. Holding your head high and walking into the next round of FD with the accomplishment of building a new car in a short amount of time and beating the odds in my opinion is a memory that bonds a team together and proves you deserve to be there. Keep up the good work!
Well said. I too have played a role in achieving the impossible with race cars. The sense of accomplishment can’t be overstated. The look on competitors faces when they see you’re team made it to the next race is worth every drop of blood, sweat, and tears X10.
I’ve been one the guys building a new car from a bare chassis in a few days when it should’ve took a few weeks minimum and it’s definitely not something most are willing to do
Dam bro I’m just glad ur safe watching that last video had my stress levels all over the place I met u a few times b4 u even blew up on social media many years ago when we where both young nd it makes me happy that’s ur doin well and to see someone from CT make it keep making our city look good brotha
5:12 " So much torque the chassis twisted " - Dominic Torreto
Booth is such a realist... It's awesome. Calls it how he sees it. Even if it upsets people. Keep being you 💯💯
23:52 This man might have just singlehandedly saved Adam's US FD season this year. I know Adam co-owns Drift HQ, so he should give Joel a raise or at least a bonus on his next paycheck, lol. Bro came in super clutch with the already-caged E36 M3 shell just sitting in his driveway/yard! If that's not divine intervention, idk what is.
I was thinking the same thing man, that is super lucky and I bet super hard for the other guy, losing his project car like that
@@darkworld3888 I mean Adam said he basically traded him another shell and some cash, lol. He lost all the hard work of putting the cage in and welding it, but that's about it it looked like.
Adam bought Drift HQ as a whole (so he does own it) but he mentioned before he has a business partner aka investor? (not sure if that means Drift HQ or for LZMFG only or both). Duarte stayed on as the head (director of sorts) if I'm not mistaken.
Dude came in so clutch, I hope his only profit wasn’t just the cash on top.
My first ever FD event I’ve been able to attend was St. Louis last weekend. I was so excited to see Adam was coming to drive here, I hate that he crashed such an iconic car, but Wa thankful I got to see him drive at all. Can’t wait to see the come back!!
"Studs didn't break either"

😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Matt field about to crash someone .
Seeing this video is like looking at a doctor saying to the family: the patient is in critical condition,... but we will do our best to make him get well again.
This E36 is by far my favorite FD pro car and knowing that it will be "rebuilt" bring much joy to my heart. Thanks Adam.
CAN WE FIX IT? YES WE CAN!
Maybe he could ship the Europe car back
Bob the builder, can he fix it?
@archieclark1747 bob the builder yes we can😂
@@ttv-adar49a1
Scoop, Muck and Dizzy and Roley too
Lofty and Wendy join the crew
Johan the builder! Can he fix it?… Johan the builder!! yes he can!!!
I've been following drifting for about 5 - 6 years now and first now i´ve started watching your channel. And i must say, i think i found my favorite channel ever. Very emotional flashback´s on the e36. Sorry for your loss man! Good luck in the future of your drifting!
Bro, I am more than hyped for this. Crazy story. I remember when you got that e36, and I thought finally Adam has an e36 and a 1J of his own lol, then it spiraled and klutch kickers, and then you bringing it to FD finally. You have progressed so much with this car, and I know it was the one you least expected to do that in the beginning. Your determination is inspiring, and I'm so glad you're going through with this and the team agreed and is hyped on this. As a fan, I'm totally hyped and gonna support in anyway I can.
That blue e36 is a war hero..... maximum respect. Now lets get it!!!!!!!
We love watching you be successful in FD...for someone who wasn't going to be there but for 2 rounds you are killing it.... You got this
I freaking knew it! LZMFG FTW! I knew Adam would rather fix the E36 or build another one than to use the S15 like many people wanted! 🤣🤣
That s15 has serious issues
@@54raceman Yeah. He was never really happy with the geometry on that chassis. I get that he wouldn't want to run it.
Love how you have all your friends living on the lot with you, shows how good of a man and friend you are. Glad you're okay and really hope to meet you one day
As a FD SEA attender, this is AWESOME. Bring lots of merch!
I’m from Texas but I’ll see you there!
206 represent
i felt so heartbroken when you hit the wall and got in the air.... i hope the pre orders are crazy so we can all help you rebuilt the most beautiful drift E36 in the world! we are all here with you Adam, we love you!
That thing is absolutely mangled good lord haha. Excited to see how you guys attack this. Also glad your safety stuff did its job and you didn't get hurt.
you driving the e36 has been my favorite of your fd career.
its easy to see how this car fits your driving style so well
and you shred way harder in that car then any other, so im stoked for this rebuild
That’s an easy fix just needs some pulling and welding!
Let’s give this comment some likes to get it to the top and even though they are building the new one, Vtuned can save the old car for a spare.
Yeah while it’s not the smartest option it’s definitely possible I’ve been involved in fixing worse
Stoked you guys are rebuilding this beast! Just came across a video i bookmarked on twitter a long time ago when it was the 1.5JZ of you doing the sickest backie into the osw skid pad from the parking lot. She will live on!
Whatever happens I’m so hyped you got to experience what the e36 life was like. And now you’re hooked haha
Wow 😲. This crew and this car have managed some amazing things. For what would be a wildcard entry you guys have made dreams possible. Honesty this is a legendary comeback story in the making. So much respect for the entire team.
Everything youve done in your career so far- this is just a small thing to overcome, come back better and stronger.
All the best!
Your team is absolutely the best. They were so disappointed by the accident, but every one of them are there for the comeback. I never had an interest in drifting or any jdm stuff until I saw you with z-roy at a cletus event, and you've had me hooked ever since, to the point that i went back in time and watched a bunch of your old videos. Everyone was good. I have even been looking at getting a jdm luxury car for myself as I'm old enough to be most everyone on the crew's dad.
“You lost the chassis” 🤣
Please show us as much of the build and in depth as possible!!! Idk about all the other viewers but I personally LOVE build videos. Like Taylor Ray’s corvette!
Hell yeah!! The fact that the crew is pumped up and ready to put the replacement e36 on the track at the next rd of FD is f'ing awesome! I love the drive yall have to compete and cant wait follow along! 💪💪
Well this is one way to be the cemented as THE Comeback kid. Wreck a car time and time again to just keep rebuilding better and better. Keep pushing and god speed to you and your team. They're some of the best you can crew up and get shit done, I love it and the passion you all share getting the e36 back
In case you didn't know, Adam is sneakily in 7th place in the FD standings. Reshelling and hopping back on the horse is a no brainer when he's got a legit shot to finish top 3 for the season.
Good luck getting it back together, gents.
FACTS! Exactly what I commented on his instagram post. He can literally podium for the season.
a season he was only going to run a couple of rounds in. And ended up running the full season! Absolute stud!
He could win and catch James Dean in points if he hits all the stops and podiums all of them
He's also tied for 7th with like 5 people...
@@joeamerio6137ya If James doesn't podium any of them lmao
Love this car so much glad you’re ok!
Honestly never thought this day would come but stoked you kept your head up and never gave up you've also got the team that can build this in a short time!!
Was kinda hoping we may see the S15 run FD for the last rounds, but building a new e36 isnt a bad choice either. Hope youll make it. Your driving has been amazing this season
Would be interesting to see how competitive he could be in the s15 now he's a better driver, last time he drove it in fd he wasn't anywhere close to as good as he is now
@Matty.Hill_87 he's far more comfortable in a e36 than he is in a s chassis
I'm glad we didn't, Adam is NOT comfortable driving that S15 but people refuse to accept it, he is just a master on the E36!
@@yota8325 oh yeah without a doubt, would just be cool to see a comparison of how he used to drive it and how he could drive it now
Definitively needs to go into the conference room, it could be on display at the compound but it’ll slowly decay over time, this being such an inspirational car needs to be forever with us and be detailed and watched out every day at morning conferences! Great full to see the team have this challenge accepted to be on Seattle
Aye even if you can’t save the blue E36 you can still put it up in the room you wanna put a car in as memorabilia!!
This is gonna be nuts but im all for it!! Ur 7th in points and a top 5 finish this season would be monumental! Ur surrounded by the best people for the job! Cant wait to see u in Seattle
With Johan on the job, nothing is impossible. Keep your positive mindset Adam.
Regards,
I.Z.
Watching this wearing the sunset e36 T. My favorite car you’ve ever built Adam, please keep this thing alive.
Go team DRIFTHQ!!! It's what you guys do best! Build it, drift it! Godspeed on finishing this challenge on time for Seattle!
Props to the whole team for taking on the massive task in 2 weeks you fellas will smash it out, The Blue E36 is special and deserves to become a piece of of LZ history, You could use E36 shell as a sim racing cockpit aswell i think that would be sick.
Glad to see Adam pushing on to the next round! Super stoked for the team!
Hell yeah man, I was kinda bummed at the beginning of the season when you said you were going to run a limited schedule and then as the season went on it seemed you found you’re passion and love for drifting in comp again because you switched to a chassis you had so much seat time in, glad you and your team are taking on the challenge! And it’s awesome to see that you’re not giving up especially since you are top 10 in points!!!!! Go get some Adam!!!!
One of the best looking if not the best drift E36s for sure. BUT there is no way it looks better than the S15.. That yellow thing is literally the best looking drift car of mine that I have ever seen.
Agreed. The s15 is goated in the looks category.
i like to see them take the time to build the E36 right the first time and take the S15, than rush it just to take the E36 then lose b/c something stupid
Dude, been watching for idk a decade and been the same outro song. Finally listened to it in its entirety and just wanted to say thank you.
Hell yeah If anyone can do it I’d pick the guys you have. They are smart, dedicated, and a great group of guys that work hard and don’t quit. Yall got this
😂💀The T-shirt
Diabolical design, I'm here for it 😂💀
I did lose it at the shirt design hahah
Had to order one 😂
Man this is why we loving having Adam in FD. Routing for you and your team to get the car there!!
Donating chickens to Alberto's farm...! 🤣🤣🤣
Literally overwhelming happiness watching this while driving home from work. Can't wait to see this thing on the wall in Seattle.
Every e36 is worth saving!
Maybe he can build the messed up chassis into another street car or something.
@@AjackLee4 na put some new panels on it and park it in the office or hang it on the wall
Even if it means sacrificing another in the process!
Mate, Give your entire crew a hug!
They share your dreams, they want to see this thing be built and care about that car just as much as you do.
Ripsnorter of a job by all,
Go get it, Ya crazy kids!
Coming back stronger and better!
We're all glad you're ok Adam. I would love to see the rebuild! Good luck to the team with this mammoth task! You can do it!!!
Wow! I didn't realize you got that car so long ago! Let's go!
hoooly, what are the odds that there's a e36 chassis already fully prepped just for the parts to go in! I am so here for this build, looking forward to it.
Johan always holds it down and puts the effort. You gotta do something special for him!
It's going to be a project, but with your team, I know it's going to be amazing!!🙌
i have faith, this car is way too sick to be totaled and forgotten
With time almost anything is fixable. But is it even worth it and as Adam said it’s FD days are likely over. Maybe he’ll make it a seat time car. The Blue e36 is twisted and cracked from front to back. Like 70% of the car needs to replaced with a new shell. It’s easier just to build another chassis.
I’m so excited for this series!! And I think the e36 should be put in the container at the compound that they put seats on to spectate drifting and cut the side off if it with a plexiglass window.
Lmao the t-shirt design😂😂
You have the most amazing team standing behind you can’t wait to see this build progress
I was there when this happened. So sad but when one door closes another one opens. Good luck out there. Can't wait to see how it all turns out
Hell yeah man! You should flip flop your color scheme for this round too! Build the new chassis and have the blue one pulled out and fixed later on. Never give up!
Man! That worked out REAL well and is moving VERY quickly. I shouldn't be surprised but I still kind of am.
E36 will forever be a legend. So glad i went to STL. Saw you for the 1st time! and saw the E36 last event!
Im pumped. Tbh I hated that car at first but my mind totally changed recently and I really love the look of it after all the progress on the chassis etc. good luck Adam!
the fact there was already a caged shell on the compound is CRAZY ! props to joel !
Super sad to see it go because I too believe it was the best looking drift car. I was really hoping you guys were going to make the push for the next round of FD and I'm super excited to see it happen! The videos leading up to it are going to be amazing!
Duuuude! I legit almost teared up when he said he was gunning got Seattle! 😭😭 Yall a fricken crazy and I can't wait to see Adam in 1st place next event!!🎉🎉
Stoked to see the new E36 build. if anyone can do it in such a short timeframe it's the LZ crew.
these montages really put into perspective how hard adam works, how much he's achieved in his life. the mans killing it.
i hope you fix the e36 Adam!! that car is a legend and you as the captain!! im super happy the car kept you safe :D after watching the video im so happy you found a perfect shell to replace the car! cant wait to see this m3 come to life!!!!
I called it.
I said your crew will be on that and you would be back on track. So please you have a shell that's half done already. Major jump to being a complete competitive car in no time.
Your crew is amazing .
Look forward to seeing at the next round and getting on the podium.
Keep up the great work lads . Make this happen.❤❤
Hell yea, shout out to Joel for giving up a prized possession of his, reluctantly I'm sure! Also Johan, Owen, Booth and everyone else for all the work they throw in on these builds. Hope to see this thing on a podium one day!
So stoked that you are rebuilding the car, very exciting and can't wait for the build videos and the next race coming. We'll done guys!!!!
Hella hyped that your coming to Seattle this year! Right down the road from my house looking forward to seeing you compete and put that fresh chassis on the podium
I hope you can get this knocked out, i was so devastated for you in St Louis because i felt you would have podiumed if bot won the whole thing. Keep the vibes high and cant wait to follow along with the build
My girlfriend and I were so bummed out watching the live stream, glad the car was built well and that you are okay. So pumped that you got another chassis and are going to try to make the rest of this season dude. Don’t let this be your last. Do it again next year. You have become a true force to be reckoned with, and a very capable of getting to the championship podium of FD! We love to see how much you have progressed the last three years as a driver, keep going bro!
This is exciting,
Lookin forward to seeing this new version in 2 weeks.
Well done peeps.
When you see your cat that totalled it must break your heart, but reviving possibly in an even better form for sure will make everyone feel excited! Let's go!
This reminds me of Tuerck turning the street frs into his pro car after totalling the pro chassis. It was so sick seeing him pull out on track after all that work and itll be even more rad for you! Go and get that podium! Also turn the blue e36 into a SIM rig!
Its so sad to see the og e36 go, its what made me buy my e36 and ive followed its journey over the past 5 years…
Very happy to see that it gets to live on in a new shell, shirt is pre ordered, THE E36 WILL NEVER DIE!
Great to see a new car already in prep stage Adam. I believe you and your team can get it setup on time for the next round.
Glad to see that you will be back on track and that Joel had the chassis still. Great content, keep 'em coming!
Love to see it come around for Seattle! Shout out to the team always doing A1 work!
cant wait! truly inspiring story to never back down. Wishing adam and all the crew the best of luck prepping for seattle!
so hype to see you at the next FD! when the crash happened i knew it was done.. but you and the team are amazing and cannot wait to see how this progresses
LETS GO!!!! Come back story of the year!! You and the crew are absolutely amazing. You all got this!! I got extremely hyped when you announced trying to make it to Seatle fdm event!!
Adam! I love your energy man! It's so awesome! CT gang! Nothing can stop a man born in CT! I was sleeping I've been burnt out from work I missed out on cletus's event.ugh all the CT boys were there. I would love to go to the event soon and meet you guys I've been watching for a long time since the BMX days
yooooo this is lit, im so keen to hopefully see this thing be done before the next round of fd, seeing this thing back out ripping around is gonna make me shed a tear
Currently building an e46 2jz drift car so I would have been even more excited to see that but definitely support the e36 decision and very happy to see you at more rounds!
Big props to the team and Adam!!! Rooting for a comeback story
