The best thing about your channel guys, is not the amazing projects that you do, but the positive vibe you give off. Humble attitude, always smiling, and joking around. And I know it isn't always easy, but you know what? when you upload a video, you make my day better. Thank you so much guys.

[@RacecraftHQ]

Agreed! Pizza for the soul topped with some knowledge I reckon 🤓 - Taz.

That's officially a gangb*ng bruh

[@kpkelsey6]

First time I was able to watch a video with two DPs with my family and it not be awkward.

[@aroundomaha]

Why are these builds so cool? They're a series of things that a DIY person can do. It makes things like brake replacement approachable and encourages people to make mods according to their own appetite and capability.

[@MattHannah88]

Safari all the things! "on the next episode: we safari the M5 Wagon"

[@OakleyOptions]

Not sure if this is a video about cars or a 80s workout video, either way im pumped!!

[@griffengardner]

I could watch you guys work on anything. I appreciate how no matter what you do/ work on you give it the quality care, attention, and parts it deserves. Love this channel!!

[@skyty0]

10:05 The OEM toyota headlights have that gap too. Supposedly it's supposed to allow water to flow around the fogs and keep them clean, which is does, but it still looks kinda ugly lol Also, that looks like a JDM OEM bezel that they sent you. The north American FR-Ss were never meant to have fog lights, so the bezel that comes with our cars has different clips to attach them to the bumper. I ordered my fog kit from Toyota and it came with little adapter clips that made the bezel fit flush. Idk if you can even find them without ordering an entire factory kit, but I hope that helps!

[@alexanderdavidtarras1156]

This was one of the most refreshing auto videos I have ever seen. Thanks guys!!!!

[@andrewward4246]

option two on the lugs and I am betting those tires wont fit without a lot of rubbing...

[@sam_scott_85]

^^ Open nuts on the street will just leave you with rusty studs, especially on a winter car.

[@NissanSkyline901]

Just want to say that I appreciate that you guys are honest about products and even honest about reactions when the quality may not be bad, but when you install something and it doesn't quite look as good as what you may have had pictured in your head. Also, my vote goes towards the second set of lug nuts.

[@jeffh6971]

spot on with the oil info. Alot of people try to say "you have to warm it up fully before driving, no matter what!" so not true. spread the knowledge gentlemen! car looks awesome, great work as always.

[@Djamestm]

Cool transformation guys. I like the out of the box builds to give a bit of variety to my KZbin life.

[@notchhill2690]

Go with closed end lug nuts keeps the dirt and dust out over the open end style. Safari FRS going for a rip will be fun to see! Radical build fellas!

[@noahmacomber5970]

ADF is such a sick company, big fan of their work and would definitely recommend to anyone who is looking for this kind of stuff

[@Patou253999]

Good job guys she's sickk 🔥 I will personally added a spoiler 🙈

[@PACKERMAN2077]

What kind of spoiler like a deck GT type of wing like fast and furious style or a big wide boxy veined rally WRX wing with deflectors and guards

[@nickd5966]

The headlights and taillights matching like that is a dream combo

[@albonfilms]

That looks hot! I think I need a rally FRS in my life too! Send one of those DP Clones to the states and let me put him to work!

[@poplaurentiu4148]

Those rusted brake calipers are now super ugly looking behind those cool rims.. So, my advice : nice red paint (for brake-calipers) lasting at high temperature should do the trick and will make them rusty shoes pop much more cooler ! ;0)

[@cosmicfiber4]

The light shining through the front grille is a nice look.

[@vinnycent007]

As an FR-S owner, it is good to see more creative builds, especially in Canada. Keep up the good work.

[@OriginalRangsta12]

The details you guys give on tyres is great and really credible 👌🏼

[@chipb1193]

I love this channel. I’d never lift an FRS, but so fun to watch.

[@luisrosario5875]

Haven’t click so fast on any video but this!

[@d.4063]

Liked the oil service humor part in video 1, like the music, like the project. Good stuff guys!

[@Redline360]

Thanks for the shout-out guys! Glad we could help be a part of your build!

[@ssaxmanful]

This build is awesome. I’m nitpicky but I don’t think the color of the wheels goes well with the red. I think white with white vinyl accents somewhere like the roof could make it pop more. Also wish you went with traditional rally oversized circle lamps on the front instead of the pickup truck bro style of the light bar. I will admit the sleekness and stealth hiding of the light bar was we executed. For the lugs run them closed style. There’s a reason open style aren’t really used anymore on oem cars

[@howardahhon7600]

Can't believe how the wheel made such a HUGE difference to the overall look of the high suspension compare to the stock wheels 😮 I definately prefer the 2nd option...

[@01FozzyS]

Definitely the closed end lugnuts.

[@nickosmond]

We need more rally inspired builds on this channel

[@Gale_Force_Raceway]

OMG the wheels.... wow I didn't think I was going to like the rally look, but just KEEP GOING! So good!

[@magnetic0314]

Each to their own but those long lug nuts are extremely practical especially doing frequent wheel changes.. more surface area for the socket and in an emergency you can even use a spanner to crack em loose

[@JBoulter11]

Love the switch up with the lift kit. Good to keep me on my toes! Quick mods made a very cool unique car!

[@dc2renteria]

Looks cool, needs a light bar on the roof with round halogens lamps

[@alexandrealbergaria6224]

more lights, more lights,. more lights! haha like the safari porsches! you guys kick ass and this channel is amazing

[@psewgobind]

The perfect winter beater.

[@Tube4TTT]

The old indicators being delayed compared to the led indicators (more so on driver's side) are surely going to drive PT crazy

[@chakadog100]

Love my ADF lift kit on my stock 07 FXT! I spank jeeps on the trails left and right!

[@jalisurr]

Similar look to my lifted STI hatch on A/T tires. I expect you'll have the same issue I do (running 225/55r17 Falken Wildpeaks on mine), which is it will touch the front mudflaps when you turn. Mine juuust rubs one of the screws on my mudflap at a certain turn angle so it's annoying but not a major issue. To complete the safari spec you need a full size spare mounted on the roof though!

[@AbeyantHero]

This looks awesome despite my expectations of an obnoxious lift. Rebuild suspension capabilities is a must for sure in rally

[@Dirtyz1234]

Did you loosen the front lower control arm bolts to let the bushings realign with the new geometry? Always a good thing to do when raising or lowering a vehicle.

[@skiptastic1000]

Exactly this, and Torque them at Ride Height.

[@kwbalance108]

The shorter lugs look so much better on it!

[@dschrock23]

option 3 on the lug nuts. ARP extended bullet tip studs with the long nuts. perfection.

[@urpapa1999]

you guys made everything look so easy

[@NvautoCa]

Been waiting all morning!!!

[@Jrponline]

Can't wait to see Dov behind the wheel of this thing lol!

[@MarioFunk]

A zoom in of the closed-end Dorman lugnuts to compare the two styles would have been a good idea.

[@Stigs722]

Your have upped your production level significantly! It’s a pleasure to watch!

[@MyBridgestone24]

Patrick/ADF is great. Money well spent.

[@JulesBrunoJjBaggy]

My friend asked yesterday if he should buy frs I'll send him this to convince him

[@sikh70]

I'm on my second 86 . Great car. Insanely reliable but slow as balls. I use it as a commuter so I'm in no hurry to get anywhere but when it comes to people wanting to race I usually back down.

[@Zoltec-q1g]

Short ended ones are the right choice!

[@NafaratMiyaMiya]

Absolutely love these "pimp my..." series ... please keep doing more affordable cars like the Civic, FRS and that BMW ... would love to see a Mazda Miata, Golf GTI, Mustang etc... Love the content guys!

[@dingus153]

Sometimes I hate living in a subtropical climate, then I remember that we at least don't have to deal with rust here 😂 great work guys

[@vballwise]

If you want to fill that gap on the fog light bezels I’ve used rubber door trip and it fills the gap perfectly. I had the same issue with after market fog light bezels on my STI and it looked good!

[@nivlac_dj6327]

Feel like this would be a blast on the snow

[@wackamack]

closed end lug nuts look much better. Not only do they look better, but they help keep water and salt from getting into the threads of the wheel studs. I have tried both on my daily driver honda and the closed end design is by far my favourite. I will never consider an open ended one again

[@jasonbougie8093]

I vote for the longer lugs (Option one). I think you are going for a rugged Safari look, lugs that stick out and have knurled tops look more rugged than sleek flush fit.

[@Tuscani407]

Next it needs some skid plates for the engine, tranny and differential for the true off-road spec! 🙌🏼

[@anomamos9095]

Warming up an engine is a hangover from when they had carburettors. You needed to warm it up long enough for you to be able to push in the choke or the automatic choke to turn off. If you didn’t warm it up to that point the engine could stall out when you try to move off, also you could forget to push in the choke causing many other issues.

[@missingpatel7349]

7:48 ChrisFix will be proud!

[@hydrolics5449]

Loved this episode! The two DP edit was amazing haha!

[@natanaelonate5193]

Id love to pick up another one to give this a go

[@Gummybear9012]

That looks so awesome. That is something I would want to do if I had one of these cars. I have a 2021 trailblazer that I want to make similar to this. It looks so badass.

[@ΘάνατοςΧορτοφάγος]

Electric vehicle, pre heat the interior on the plug, drive of full send, no problem. Great choice on the wheels.

[@MegaXavman]

This was my dream! Thanks for makin a video of a safari FRS

[@FigureItAudi]

The seasonality of a climate like ours (I'm generalizing - Canadian's know that there's quite a variance in what winter is like across the provinces) really is an interesting topic when it comes to oil. There was a pretty big "if" there, mentioning only a few cycles through the oiling system was enough to start driving, IF the weighting is correct. And there's the catch. I would fall over in shock if your typical Jiffy Lube, CDN Tire or even the dealer would instinctively put a lower cold weight oil into a vehicle when they're doing changes in the fall. I'm sure they're non discriminately pumping in 5 or even 10W 30/40 into everything that rolls through at all times of the year. Even as a car enthusiast that maintains the household cars, I don't stock multiple weights and stick to oil change schedules based on season. For those of us that see -40 in February and are forced to park outside. Neat topic.

[@antn537]

The fog light switch looks OEM because it most likely is, as those fog light trim panels and lights are the same size/shape of the lights as the fog lights on UK spec Toyota GT86 (not smoked of course)

[@iesaTX]

Sick! I like the second lugs. Also I recommend getting some wheel spacers so its looks a bit better.

[@moke37]

Can confirm, Speed Academy license plate frame gave my BRZ +2000hp

[@ianrichani3747]

Speedo is gonna be off cause of the big tyres but it does look great

[@TheEmeraldforce]

with tired and worn out springs and struts i would be worried what would happen if you hit a sizable bump in a road. with how tight it is i would be worried it would just rip everything right off. my idea was that the wheel was a size too big, maybe go down too a 16 and keep a tall sidewall. thats usually what i see done to minimalize/avoid cutting

[@LessTalkMoreDelicious]

I just found out a few days ago, the upcoming 2022 86 has some significant engine improvements (2.4 now, more and lower-down torque, fixed torque dip, etc.). Supposedly, it's now faster and peppier than even the ND2 Miata, which was touted for being very peppy, quick and torquey. I was very attracted to the ND2 Miata (appearance and peppy'ness), if something ever happened to my Ap1 S2k... but now, I think I'd rather get the 2022 86, mainly because I like coupes/hardtops much more, and also bigger size, and more trunk-room with folding down rear-seats.

[@PardeepBasra]

Go with the short grey ones. Everything else on the car is stand out and brash being a safari build this will keep the wheels looking cleaner too

[@tastesgood111]

Love the wheel/tire combo, looks awesome!! However I do think it might feel gutless with those on there, not just from the extra weight but the extra diameter will essentially be gearing it up. Worth it tho 😂

[@mborges87]

What was the tire size? The car looks great!

[@suttonsplash14]

love the series! Thanks Valvoline and Continental Tires!

[@Jaspereyne]

[@tarun2231]

sheeeesh that looks so sick dave has now ascended to a another realm and has gained the power to clone himself while pete creates a realm of his own where BMWs don't leak oil

[@juffurey]

Yeah I heard that on Car Talk as well, just takes a minute to warm up the engine enough.

[@AA-yx2kf]

[@anthonyrobitaille8963]

I think with all the safari mod a skid plate would be very useful! And for me short lug nuts!

Looks rather good, I had seen XV and foresters lifted from RAllitek but never a BRZ/FRS/86

[@histerlm123]

Love it!! Keep up the great content. Looking forward to seeing what the dyno numbers are with the mods.

[@vinceking7878]

Could you mix that type of strut tower spacer with coil overs for stock height?

[@speedacademy]

Yes, it would be the same.

[@morganburt3688]

Nice Body Shaping music! up and down up and down, and breath 2 3 4!

[@bobbyrios2k223]

Rally spec frs looks cool, that wheel color with red looks odd to me though. As far as lug nuts.. the second one with closed looks better

[@PACKERMAN2077]

I personally think the fog light housings look fantastic... The _housings_ I said, sure the shape of it in relation to the rest of the car does not match unless you add a large black round convex spotlights all over the front like a rock crawler to blend the theme in with the rest of the car. The actual housing itself looks nice enough that you might be able to repurpose it as a brake cooling duct or intake. *I'm curious is that the largest light bar you could have fit under there... because in a perfect world the entire grill would be illuminated?*

[@CrossWindsPat]

Hmmmm.... You guys are dipping into the rice zone with this one... Aftermarket head and taillights, light bar and license plate that blocks the air flowing into the radiator. Not that I'm against changing the head and taillights but IMO the best best is the BRZ headlights and the newer 86 taillights. But hey I still love the content and been watching since 50k subs so just keep doing what your doing!

[@doggothedog7744]

Maybe you guys should do a youtube poll.😊 Great content.👌

[@AliasHSW]

Coming up next: Donk FRS. Lol . Just kidding. Love this build. Make mine black with them wheels.

[@arumrunner]

Great build guys, love it. I'm really not liking the tire choice though. I know Conti is a major sponsor (props to them) but in some cases I think staying true to the design goals is important. Why not give another awesome local shop a chance at this, give FourStarMotorsports over in Georgetown a shout. They can hook you up with real rally tires such as the Pirelli P7 Corsa Classic's. Cheers and hope to see you guys at the track this summer!

[@speedacademy]

Using rally tires on a daily makes no sense, we went with the best feasible solution that could work on a daily basis.

[@cosmicpossum1658]

I definitely like the open ended lug nuts better, it gives it a more aggressive look that match the rest of the cars. I don’t feel like the other lug nuts match the car.

[@AX5Z]

I liked the first lugs a lot more.

[@sgr040880]

Ready for snowy canadian roads!!

[@RobertKohut]

Tire clearance looks tight. Not sure it would handle winter driving.... :-) (wheel well buildup) Do they rub turning?

[@ZackNakazora1]

You guys are making me miss the 86 chassis. I don't need a 3rd!! If I was was going safari build I'd go one step farther with a roof top spare wheel mount. And some skid pans.... Yup yup.. The mod bug bit

[@RobertKohut]

Nice! I wondered at first but hey, it looks like a cool rally car. I think putting the plate in the center and adding two round driving lights, one each side of the plate, would add to it's look...:-) (instead of the light bar)

[@PACKERMAN2077]

Yeah definitely exterior lights always look more impressive than hidden lights if you're going for you know the girthy beefy look. more importantly I've never been one of square LED light bars mixed with round lights I think it should be consistent all the way around
