Building The Next Generation RWB Porsche 911s With Nakai-San

[@thedonvito7650]

They’re cool cars. Don’t get why the internet turned on RWB.

Once folks on the Internet got to see the poor quality of his builds up close, the illusion of RWB was shattered for most car building enthusiasts. What he does is overpriced modern art with cars, so rich posers can can feel like their $100k Porsche is rough track missile from the 80s, which it isn't. Nakai has made his business "the rough aesthetic", but he could easily increase the quality and durability of his builds whilst maintaining the backyard-build aesthetic, which he should for the price he's asking. Simple changes like tig welding the inner and outer panel skins, rust-proofing the panel cuts, installing sealed stainless rivnuts on the body and using 2k paint for touchups and panel sealing. Compare any RWB to a proper high-dollar widebody build using steel panels rolled on an English wheel and it's hard to be impressed by RWB.

It was because someone had a tow hook spec'd in their build and they put the car on air, the air tank was in the way of the mount for the tow hook so they asked Nakai if they could just temporarily glue the tow hook on for the photoshoot of the build. People saw photos of Nakai gluing the tow hook on and assumed this is how he builds his cars but he was just doing it as a temporary placeholder piece for a photo.

@@pmodd any evidence of what you claim above? It's easy to make up stuff about a business without evidence. People can do it to your business or status as an employee

​@@g0d182 look it up. Its not hard lol HACK

[@Lorenzo_Lebediuc]

Regardless what people have to say, this man has a community following him and that takes a lot of work. Hate it or love it, hard works speaks for itself. Cool hat btw 😅

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Haha 100%. If you care to know, the hat got caked in dust and dirt during the lake bed shoot so I don't think it'll ever be the same...

[@Lorenzo_Lebediuc]

@ we got more 😎

[@4Kandlez]

If you car was repaired at a body shop and it came out to this standard you'd go WTF?!

[@nocolo123]

You will be mad, your car just got riced

Great video Marcus! This is better than a Top Gear episode, no joke! I think Nakai-san's work is great. I'm an RWB fan. His treatment does work on the newer models but personally I feel like the 930, 964 and up to the 993 is where it's at.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Glad you enjoyed it 🙏 I agree

[@DougSlmon]

I love it all the work he does with Porsche. He’s one awesome dude him and his buddy.

[@grahamcampbell7594]

Evolution. I think the 997 is a great platform for this

[@ẞLe55]

Nakai san again🤩🥳😎

[@tptrsn]

Really great video!

[@fortheloveofthehotrods]

Nice episode! Thanks for sharing!

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Glad you stopped by 🤝

[@DougSlmon]

Both of you are awesome doing those flared fenders on those Porsche. It’s awesome.

[@luwis.34]

sick video as always!

[@158158cow]

For the algo! I don’t understand why your channel gets so few views

[@yhelloh]

He doesn't have a long description and doesn't use any hashtags. KZbin also just sucks nowadays, you really have to search for good content.

[@JerryHenderson72]

The only problem I see with that car is the fact that it's not a manual . Otherwise it's downright beautiful and more than likely handles beautifully too .

[@PapaTroll86]

That's something that a lot of people who are ripping on RWB don't consider. They have a lot of tire, which subsequently gives them a ton of grip. You can't get that tire width with the stock body. Most of these naysayers are picturing these as to what they would be like to take to the grocery store and not their spirited driving potential.

[@Tk44375]

Nakai is still building air cooled. I have 3 friends that did 993’s in the last year. 997’s are just more affordable. It’s why you are seeing more 997 builds.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Yes! I talk about this at the end of the video. That, and people love new things.

[@Tk44375]

@ great video btw.

[@Shiba_Inu_Des]

Love it, Love it!

[@SuperYacht-News]

Funny how people have opinions on other people’s cars. If you don’t like them, don’t buy one! Your opinion of a car you don’t own or pay for is worthless.

[@spaghetti941]

Well when it's promoted and a business everyone 100% has the right to judge.

[@DougSlmon]

Bro, that is awesome with McKay. I don’t know if I spelled it right but oh well he’s one awesome builder.

[@DougSlmon]

❤❤😂❤😢😅😊 RWB does awesome work with Porsches he’s one awesome dude knows how to make him look really good and low. I see him work all over so one when he did one in Seattle a week ago or two keep up the good work with the videos, nice Porsches at the meat in where you’re at.

[@timotheegoulet1511]

Oh god please tell me he’s not going to touch that 356!

[@EddieRicks-i8v]

I have owned a lot of cool cars but to this day i have not driven a Porsche and i think I am saving the best for last 😊

[@JeremyHartson2000]

A lot of discussion about paint and video footage of fender flares. Not much about the performance mods that (should) dictate the changes. How is the track performance vs. the stock 997?

[@colin8601]

this is a "vape bro" , "flat brim hat bro" , "aesthetic bro", cosmetic body kit build. nothing more

[@ADxMisadventurer]

what black material is being used in the gaps between those body panels? seems like an excellent exterior protection seal.

[@DougSlmon]

Do they have that every year in Vegas? If so, I’d like to go I’m not too far from Vegas about six or eight hours from Vegas

[@911_dan2]

Ruined

[@AnthonyLCapitano]

should have went with the 996...

[@frederickcook87]

RWB look decent on older Porsches…. Doesn’t fit the 997 at all. Not knocking the guy but he’s made a ton of money on some real hack job type stuff…

[@prashanthp5448]

Totally agree. Somehow the RWB kit seems to visually ‘soften’ the 997 platform rather than make it more aggressive as it did for the older cars

[@shiftmechanism919]

Do the math ... 7 cars a month x 30k per kit... he racking in 210k cash a month 12 x 210k = 2.5 mil a year .. if you made that much would you care what people think ?

[@TheSlowoldman]

PT Barnum said it best, "There is a sucker born every minute." A very prescient description of an RWB customer.

日本語！？

[@nocolo123]

Jap riced ruined porsche

[@original2758]

Definition of "over doing it"... Too much of a good thing is real; case in point. Just my opinion

[@easyerc2226]

its a joke how much attention these wide body ting tong motors get, they're so poorly "built" and over rated

[@shiftmechanism919]

says the Ford focus driver ...

[@easyerc2226]

@ many moons ago, we live and learn unlike these idiots and the people who think it’s cool 🤣🤣
