Abandoning the 4 Rotor FD RX7 Project

[@daniel_unique]

Definitely interested in keeping updated on Johans car and other employees cars, I like seeing content including other people

[@crimson8135]

i agreed i’d love to see updates on the employee builds and if nothing else would be good filler content to upload

[@tanner_titus]

I’d be down to see a “People Of LZMFG” or “LZMFG Employee Projects” KZbin channel on the side, where they do the employee’s cars. Kind of like the way the DriftHQ channel works. There’s lots of LZ Compound shenanigans, but it focuses on DriftHQ projects. Hoonigan has like 10 different channels that started with daily transmission. I’m sure everyone at LZMFG could pull off a second channel for cars that don’t belong to Adam.

[@Ali.Yousif]

@@tanner_titus Would definitely love to see an employees channel. Where all employees can upload to it and perhaps they could get the revenue from their own videos they've uploaded too!

[@Ali.Yousif]

@@tanner_titus each employee own channel might end up bad where someone might exploit Adam to grow a channel then leave him. Not that I am saying any of his current crew would, they're all cool guys from what we get to see!

[@justintrinchini3371]

Not gonna lie, I’m really glad that the 4 rotor build isn’t really coming to light. The FD you have is WAY too clean to be messed with, though I am glad you’re keeping the 13B and doing light mods. I’m so pumped the 4 rotor is being put in the A90, that’s a super cool and unique build idea and I’m stoked to see it happen!

[@freikinpoptarts]

Glad this happened. FDs are such incredible cars stock, its always a shame when someone destroys one by completely removing everything that makes it what it is. Curious if Tommy helped talk him out of it since he was also planning on swapping his dream FD with an NA 3 rotor and decided against. Fyeah builds have a way of convincing !

[@john-ll7xn]

I don’t know if I would go as far to say a 4 rotor is ruining it or taking away the heart of a fd since it’s still rotary powered unlike everyone and their moms who put a ls in fd’s

[@Juggalo10p]

@@john-ll7xn yeah fr

[@griffins5655]

@@john-ll7xn true but keeping the stock engine and just improving on that is going to be kinder to the car as whole seeing as they won’t have to do any fab work or body kits or anything. Tasteful and slightly understated is honestly a really nice way to modify a car (especially one that’s as beautiful as an FD from the Get-go) and I wish more people would do take that approach, and I’m definitely glad to see Adam taking it. That’s just my opinion tho 🤷.

[@rippingdeath666]

You logic makes no sense adding a 4 rotor is making the car 4 times what it is it dosent ruin it

[@kaedeschulz5422]

I don't think it would destroy the car. The Devil Z real red one or anime one are masterpieces and make use of the awesome aerodynamic platform. I would love a 4rotor NA FD. That rapid response of such engine and the sound is just lovely 😍

[@dyoung5690]

This man has clearly talked to Tommy on the FD build and I'm happy about that.

[@theangrymarmot8336]

I think that is a great idea. OEM++ the FD and enjoy it as intended. The 4 rotor a90 is an awesome idea. You should leave the interior in it, don't full racecar it yet. The best part of the Barra Mustang is it is so "raw" but yet a completely passable street car - I think the same idea with the 4 rotor a90 would be awesome.

[@Garage533Ohio]

Happy New years everyone who's watching 🎉🎉 I love the channel Adam your a huge motivation to me, and I just want to wish you and everyone around you good vibes on the next year to come

[@Garage533Ohio]

So glad he's preserving the beautiful fd to make it just a clean OEM plus build. Also the supra will be fucking insane to see come together with a widebody from hunt the crazy 4 rotor from vargas and all the great styling and ideas from LZ

This channel has really hit a new level of awesome when it comes to content and consistency. The compound was definitely one of the best investments ever.

[@vintagetweed]

The A90 builds plans are hot fire! What a unique idea. Its gonna sound nuts, and with the amount of power those 4 rotors can make, it'll be a be a rippy boi. It's gonna be a mindfu*k hearing the rotary brap coming from a Supra. Can't wait to see how it takes shape. Brilliant start to 2022 Adam!

[@LycheeMonstaMedia]

Change is often a good thing! I can't wait to see.

[@Riffrshittr]

I absolutely love adam's way of building cars. where he gets damaged cars like the jz and the s15 and makes them really pretty but race car af at the same time no guilt in damaging them cuz of their state prior to being built. and when he gets something really clean he sticks to the cars roots but sprinkles his personal touch to it. most tasteful building ever. edit: im hyped to seeing a 4 rotor mk5 supra! and would love to see employee videos and updates on their cars and builds. atleast you know where to get some content from days youre not feeling content. lol

[@lcphantom2372]

A bitter sweet moment… I was really looking forward to a 4 rotor fd build…. But I think it will be a lot better suited in the a90 after hearing your plans for it. Besides that chassis is already proven to hold more power. Stoked to see what you do with the two cars now!

I'm glad to hear the future of the FD. Not going to go all in and change everything but keeping some parts stock. Really excited about this build

[@JaredR1996]

I was actually pumped for the FD, but things change. So I’m now excited for the new build. Can’t wait 👍

[@jefffedorvich9423]

My best guess for why it didn’t show up on the leak down test of the r34 is because the engine was cold. After all that’s what those tolerances and clearances are for. To allow for expansion of parts when they get hot. So when the engine is cold, the parts were contracted enough to seal the valve. When the engine gets warm, the parts expand causing the clearance to be too small which would hold the valve open and cause the misfire

[@GAMEPLAY-us2br]

i would go for a track build on the fd as i like the look of the TCP widebody kit but i also like the idea of a 4 rotor in a supra. Happy new year btw

[@lowhood22]

He said because of how stock and clean it is he isn't doing a widebody. I think it'll be more of an OEM+ type of build.

A true team player comes to mind with Johan and his wide knowledge of everything that makes him the swiss army knife of the human kind.

What my "Race Gun" collection is custom built 1911's and 2011's. A 2011 is a double stack (like a Glock) 1911. Anybody that knows pistols knows you can never get a trigger to work as well as a 1911 trigger. So thats what I got. Keep doing what you do, I love it and I'm like your dads age, and this shit makes me feel young again.

You don't have to cut the fenders to run wider wheels on the FD, you can tub the chassis. And none of those other downsides matter when you consider there is no better sound than a high revving 4 rotor. That would be the purpose of the car. To be the best sounding and looking car that could also do some drifting. I may be biased tho bc a 4 rotor FD is pretty much a top 3 best dream cars of all time to me.

you better do a leak down test on the cylinder that had the 'tight' exhaust clearance. it's unfortunate that it was on an exhaust valve, because having a valve not close properly on the exhaust is literally like having a blow torch blasting the valve seat and overheating the valve/seat. You might even have valve seat damage(loose/moved seat).
