We'll throw some "NASCAR pit crew impact skills" in the next shipment for you Adam 😂 Happy to be supporting the project and so awesome to see it come back to life!!
You guys may have stolen my business from Turner Motorsports now!! ❤️
Fcp has always had my business through my 335 n54 ownership. Best euro parts supplier around hands down.
@@sethwarnol9785 I’ve used Turner for my previous BMW’s because I’ve known them from working in IMSA and the SRO series. But their selection and warranty…..doesn’t match FCP now. So I’ll definitely look at their site once I get my 525i back up and going.
FCP Euro I need a sponsor for my s60r
Fcp is the best supplier for euro parts I’ve bought everything for my 335 from them
R32 looks sick! Love the green.
I was just about to say did anyone see the R32
Low key reveal
For real
These R32 "shots" are sneaky
Looks amazing
Those wheels look good! I bet whoever sent them spent a lot of time on them! (wink wink) Glad they went to a good home! For what it's worth. Those bolts got removed, re-polished, and cleared. They've been corrosion free for a little over a year. Hopefully they stay that way!
What wheels are they?? What is the year and model?? Would they be aftermarket dare rs wheels??
@@elontusk7565 BBS RC090, or Style 5's is their common name. From an E39 5 series. 17x8 ET20.
They look awesome dude. Great job!
@@aleclenzen8347 Thanks! Kind of weird to see him unwrap them. I'm glad they were happy with the condition!
Yo man, what all did you do to get them that good? My E39 has Style 5s and they’re a little rough but I don’t have the money to just ship them out at the moment
26:08 good to see after all these years that he can still be called 50th try Adam.
Og type comment right here 10/10
Was about to comment the same thing 😂😂
Fax, miss the old bmx vids
You have no idea how much you got people into bmx then the transition into cars was perfect. Love these types of videos
Dude I’m one of the masses. I used to ride bmw and I was pretty good, went to Woodward a couple time. Met Adam 1 time in PA, I remember laying on my old porch watching his departure with stranger and he was leaning into the OG 350z build. I got my first e46 in 2016. I now am on my 3rd e46😂now got a 330 zhp. He’s a legend dude. Every car guy was either a bike rider, skater, or gamer in their childhood
R32 in the back looks killer ! Great job
RIGHT!! It looks so good I’m beyond pumped on it. Same color as my car
Been watching Adam for years now.. this was definitely one of his best episodes.. So cool watching this guy come up
Brake lines are under THOUSANDS of pounds of pressure per square inch during use. Hanging them off isn't going to do anything. Everyone always tries to make a huge deal out of it.
Yes, the force is different with being in tension when hung, but that won't overcome the PSI rating of the line.
more e46 content! love this stuff
@ChristopherH oof
The R32 is looking so good the wrap choice was fire!
That green is so sickk!!
I legit thought it was paint until I saw this comment I legit forgot he said he was wrapping it 🤣
@Jerh Nie shhhh nobody asked for you to comment.
ah , a car i did not expect to see again but it sure is awesome seeing it again. put subs in the trunk to make it 100%
rip style 5 prices, it will go up now
This may be the best video I’ve ever seen on this channel. The edits in the first like 10 min were epic. That media man is the jam. More content where Adam works on cars and has wild coffee lol
Agree 100% you stole my words😅 glad i scrolled down👍🏼
thats divine media, ruclips.net/user/AviatorsEditsvideos
This has me back at like 15 16 watching your videos getting into Bmx, I bought my first Cult bike because of you, then when you sold the Beamer for the 240 I was heart broken because I thought it was the coolest car, but as you grew into drifting and building your now amazing collection of Vehicles, I learned so much about car history from all parts of the world
He sold this bimmer for the 335i. He bought the 240 like 2 years after that because he wanted to start drifting too
Adam, you are such a huge inspiration to me! Sick at the moment and watching this to get my spirit lifted!
Keep on pushing the limits bro!
Hope you feel better bro
feel better man ❤️ getting sick too & spending my time watching Adam:)
When I say I smiled the whole video I mean it. I’ve been watching you since before the Aaron Ross bars video. I got into bmx because of you and then I broke my arm really bad and couldn’t ride anymore without pain so I got into cars because of you as well. You’re truly a major part of all my teenage years and you still are to this day. I know you’ll probably never see this but I’m so proud of how far you and the channel have come! Keep up the great videos!
Adam "This is stage 1" or "I don't want to go too crazy" is how every build starts.
Dude r32 at the back looks good
When did he make it that color?
@@KevinReillySV You could see it in the last bmw video
The r32 looks soooo good in that green
28min video of a millionaire who owns one of the coolest car collection ever, including 2 bmw e46 m3s restores an old e46 that he loved back in the days. I love this dude!
I would pay stupid money just to walk in all of the garages on that complex
@@insertname941 Same here. I am a subscriber for the last 7 years and I am really emotionally attached to Adam, his cars and his crew. I have the feeling that if I ever have the chance too meet them in person i would feel them like friends you know, cuz i have been part of their life for so long and i know so many things :D
Brake disc screws should only be hand tight lol, wish I could build my first car so happy to see you reliving past Adam in the process :).
haha, saw your comment before i saw it being blasted on with air tool lmao
- but yes, you are 100% correct. It only needs to be hang thight :D
R32 sedan green looks so sick!
When did he make it green? It looks sick just needs to ditch the red windows
@@KevinReillySV yea
Adam, I’m sure you know this, but if you plan on keeping the lug bolts and not doing the stud conversion MAKE SURE you get EXTENDED lug bolts. I’m running Style 5’s on my e36 coupe and using the same lug bolts that I use on my stock Style 30’s and they backed out. Yes I torqued them, let them settle, then re-torqued them a day later (they were fine) but 2 weeks later I took them off and threw the stockies back on for winter (I live in Scranton, PA) and when I was taking them off the lug bolts were a little loose. I ordered the stud conversion off of ECS so when I put my Style 5’s back on after a full respray to hopefully not run into this issue again. Keep up the amazing content!
This video brought me so much internal joy. Not only because i started watching your channel with this car, but also makes me think of my first car. My 02 325i went through some of the same mods. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and the core memories.
Damn, this brings back memories! I found Adam's channel at the very end of his BMX content and his transition into cars/drifting, but I still remember this car. So cool to see that you found it all these years later and rebuilt it with its original mods (kinda) and look.
Just wanted to say I bought an e46 as my second car years ago because of watching your videos back in the bmx days...this build series is so nostalgic for me and makes me miss my BMW
16:11 goes to show that everyone's first car was soooo sketchy. My first car had such a bad oil leak that it was 3 quarts low and the dip stick was bone dry. Oh the good old days.
adam, ive been watching so long that it seems like we are kind of family at this point. i was fortunate Enough to ride along with you in your cream s13 at lone star bash in like 2015 and even then i had been watching since you had that one. jack to jack it up with at college. so stoked to see your talent recognized by rtr and your acquisition of drift hq. you seem so happy man, CONGRATS!!
I have also let my caliper hang many times in the past. Never has killed me. I only hang it when I’m going to be doing something longer than just changing a rotor real quick.
I started watching probably around 2015ish when you had the cream S13 and 335i so I wasn’t here for the old BMW, but this is so cool to see! I feel like alot of car guys would love the chance to possibly buy back or have their original car (if it was cool) and be able to do it right or modify it how they wanted to when they didn’t have all the money and resources!
This brings back so many memories! The early bmx days, the Woodward summers! Stoked to see it back with you!
Great seeing you, Co'llett and tj at Hyperfest. Can't wait for next year!!
Ahh this brings me back to 2014 Sowo/ H2O days!! Cars like yours were what made me fall in love with E36s/ E46s. This makes me feel good and this was such a fun episode.
Adam always out with bangers. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Awe, we're everywhere my bru 😁🤙
Awe ma se kind
Lekker ouens
lekker boys
The r32 looks sick 😏
I typically hate style 5's but they look so at home on the 46. As a BMW guy I can't wait for this series and the transformation of what this car turns into!
time flies... i remember checking into Adam's "how to bunny hop" .. back then when i was still a BMX fanatic... now i am a car maniac, surely the transition makes so much sense.
i have a few car projects of my own.. i reside in Botswana btw, perhaps Adam could ship in a gift, lol
Used to have a E46 330i sedan with sports package and all the ZHP bits. Boy does this bring back memories!
I remember watching you when i was into bmx then i stopped and started getting super interested into cars and found you again. Crazy stuff
Its actually crazy seeing this car again.... Love the memories it even brings back for me first finding your channel ages ago
Seeing this just brought back memories from your old videos. I have been watching since the good ole webisode days. Seeing the videos of your BMW back then I thought it was sick, now seeing how far you have come with all your other vehicles just proves that anything is possible. From webisodes back in CT, to now having a huge compound in Florida, being a pro drifter and growing more and more everyday is wild. Loved this video ❤️
That green on the R-32 is sick !!!! I'm still low key mad you took the "JDM AF" livery off lol
It’s crazy to see this car back on the channels I’ve watched you from day one, you are doing great things bro. Keep it up 👍
Loving the little sneak peak of the R32 4door done with the Inozetek @1:46 that things going to be sick when it’s all done!
It's crazy to think I started watching you back when you did the one wheel peal in this thing!Then the ol S13 came along and so did south of the boarder
So many good memories taking back to whel BMX is what it was all about, grateful for you being in such a place in life right now! Greetings from Poland!
The green on the 32 looks nice!!
Thank you for bringing this car back it's what got me on your channel back in the day, it deserves to be restored and not swapped just the subwoofer missing now and some og stickers.
like the first time i watched adam lzed back in 2014. well done mate
Since when is the R32 green? That's sick
So dope to see this project come together. Making me miss my e46 325i
As a long time viewer, it makes me so happy to see this car back, and you bringing it back to OG! Absolutely love it and can't wait to see what happens with it!! Much love keep doing you dude!!
The nostalgia is real with having the E46 back. Wow
Love the work on the BMW but that R32 looks crazy.
Some rotors come painted, my hawk quiet slot rotors came painted and the pad only takes the paint off where it contacts so it doesn't rust where there is no contact
This video reminds me. 7 years ago I had just started bmx and I wanted to learn some tricks. I stumbled upon Adam LZ and saw the sick cars
Watching Adam work on his own cars is my favorite like it just brings me back years ago when he would just vlog
Man the style 5’s look really good. Makes me want to refinish mine! Another awesome vid Adam!
Not gonna lie I’m impressed how good that thing turned out glad to see you have it back 🤙🏻
So want to see you fully build something with a BM engine in or maybe an alpha v6 or VAG W12 or merc biturbo v12, go over what is good what is bad and what needs fixed / upgraded on your choice to build.. maybe some kind of Collab with a Euro based tuning channel? (At least for initial build or research or..)
Question is, what to put the BM(or otherwise) engine in? Something Japanese? American? We see LS /jz/rb swaps making into all sorts of things but so few do it the other way and there are people making good power and reliability..
Just think it's something no-one is doing / has done.. Kinda like the barra swap I can see you doin it right and making it hella interesting.
R32 looking spicy! Cant wait to see the final result
Lets gooo I missed this car so much Adam 🤙🏼
Love the memories it brings back.
The love in his eyes makes me wanna never sell my first car. I drive an Acura TL, and while it’s nothing special, I love her.
Heavily debated selling her a couple weeks ago when I got an insane offer (way more than it’s worth) but I couldn’t. She’s my baby.
So rad to see this car again and see how happy Adam is to work on it
I had the same rims on my e46 i balanced them so MANY times thinking they weren't balanced until i realized they weren't hub centric it drove me crazy for months thinking they were unbalanced
Please explain cause I’m thinking about getting these same wheels for my e46
You need to buy hub centric rims for a 5 series rim to fit on the 3 series I belive the 5 series is a 74.1mm and the e46 is 72.6mm you need a 74.1mm to 72.6mm hub centric rings they are fairly cheap like $10-$20 on Amazon
Looking awesome with those wheels and stance!
the red chaser catches my eye in every clip from all the different angles, looks so good!
These are the exact same wheels on my E39 525 anddd I learned to drive on my moms E46 325 so i gotta say this restoration has given me a lot of enjoyment... Need to get my wheels refinished after seeing the work done on these
This car bringing me back so many memories, glad to see how far you came man been a long time fan
Why don't you just use a breaker bar to lessen the amount of force to take off the bolt?
Adam this episode gives me so many flashbacks to the early days of your channel. I remember watching the video where you did the burnout in your bmw please make a part 2 to that video
Loving this build, reminds me of my e46 320d msport (factory zhp for you Americans) Mike is an editing genius by the way, the ending b-roll he’d nearly had to bumpers matching👌🏻
My friend has a totaled bmw 2016 m4 but the engine transmission subframes and brakes system are good there is also interior. He could sell it to you to swap your e46 that was my plan for my e46 touring but if you get the m4 ill throw the e46 touring for free my guy
Would be so keen to see a unique swop like a 4.4l v8 from a bmw or an n54 or something 😅
S65 would be amazing. Adam won't ever touch an n54 again I'd bet 😂
@@Dudehoolikesairsoft lol
When the socket fell off the impact and Adam took that little pause, I felt that in my core.
Dude I’ve been watching you for years. We both started bmx around the same time and I loved watching your videos! That must of been like 8 years ago now. It’s great to see your still doing great!
Out of all of your cars I’m most excited for this one. I too had the opportunity to buy my very first car back 13 years after I sold it but like an idiot I did buy it and now it’s MIA so I’m living vicariously through your first car 👌🏼
We are here for the E46 Content for sure… can’t wait to see the cars final form… hope you are gonna sort the backseat out, that tear let’s the rest of the interior down, Sending much love across the pond from over here in Yorkshire, UK 🇬🇧
Idk why I’m so pumped to see the build on this car. But I love it
I’ve been here since you were teaching us how to make your hubs louder. Man has it been a ride love you Adam salute!
Don’t need spigot rings if you have tapered lugs, the only real benefit is it’s easier to put your bolts or nuts on when you put the wheel back on
They were designed for very old cars which used lugs with a flat seat instead of tapered which would centre the wheel. But everyone thinks you still need them
I even had a Suzuki with no centrebore ring to support the wheel at all but it didn’t need them
This is what it’s like working on my miata that wasn’t touched for 15 years, I thought I could do rear brakes in 2 hours maxed, then spent 7 hours doing 1 side and grinder 3 quarters of my brake pad off because the piston that pressed on the brake wouldn’t go back, shit box things👍🏼
Adam owns multi thousand dollar cars yet he gets so giddy over his old beemer, it’s nice to see that :)
21:06 I know it's not the theme of this build but mhmmmmm clear tails on this would look OP!!!
Watching you and mike build your og cars is such a vibe .
That looks so good!! Awesome build !
Duarte is the man, adam is so lucky to have him and driftHQ on his team
I would have never thought Adam hangs the caliper from the brake line
Hella nostalgic vibes with the bike on the roof rack
Can't wait to see how this car gets built in the future
Damn she's come a far way already!! I'm running BC's BR series on my 6spd G Sedan.. Doing the rear true conversion end of this month and can't wait.
Reminds me when you used to tell everyone to click the ads because it paid you on your BMX tutorials. The good old days.
Awesome video...& PB blaster is a must...& or get a propane torch & heat it up to make the metal exspand..& it will bust loose much easier..
When I first discovered Adam on RUclips it was right around the time he had this car all tricked out like this. And I like Adam for two reasons one he likes BMWs and two he was in the BMX. Which basically was my life lol I still race BMX today. I no longer have a BMW but I do miss my three series. So I was excited to see he got this car back and brought it back to life. I would legit use this car every day if it was mine lol. Excited to see this video pop up in my feed today. Awesome job keep them going at Adam!
What a throwback. Such little mods, and the car looks amazing.
I'm actually pumped on this series! We've all wished that we could get our first car back, and built it.
PERFECT! just like an old time 🙌🙌🙌
I love these videos because I've been saving up for my first project car. I got a long way to go but keeps me motivated to keep saving.
The car looks so sickk
21:50 funniest thing ever with the power tools lmao love that 💀💀💀
Perfect video before work I cant wait to see more of this build
Loving the 46! Can't wait too see it painted and a 3000bhp 2j!!
