I have a friend that was trying to find out how to get the body parts.

Sunburst (Japanese) makes a lot of the parts and they'll sell to you.
http://www.sunburst911.com/top.html

But Rauh-Welt is very picky. The owner Ken Nakai is really protective of his work so if you want it done, he has to do it. He won't ship loose body parts.

There is an American distributor for Rauh-Welt (can't remember where) but even that owner said the same thing....unless you bring the car to us, we will not sell the parts.

I think their cars are perfect. It's like a perfect mix of old GT4/RSR style race car with a mix of modern styling. If you asked me at age 12 (back when I had Testarossa and Porsche 930 posters on my bedroom wall) to draw the perfect Porsche, it would end up looking similar to a current Rauh-Welt design.

RWB blog is here, has pics most/all of the group's builds for the past 5yrs. as far as I know RWB operates in concert with a tight group of suppliers/subcontractors who are listed on Rauh-welt's homesite

http://rauhwelt.blog8.fc2.com/

among their most aggressive builds:

There are some lovely sounds, though some of this is recorded badly . . .

But then again, you can go a bit more of a normal look with slightly abnormal power:

Might as well post some more vids/info.

Most of the guys use Promodet for engine work.
http://www.promodet.co.jp/index2.html

The shop has a crazy naturally aspirated 3.8 drag car that's mid engine..

And some seriously fast turbo cars. Skip to 3:05

your price is correct:http://www.rauh-welt.com/964GT.html
widebody flares, bumpers (f&r), turnsignals, 18"wheels, tires, spacers, installation including paint & alignment. no mention of suspension upgrades.
2mos install time.

i have not seen rauh welt prepared cars listed for sale by other brokers in japan (there is limited private buyers market there)....so have to assume rauh welt performance shop offers consignment sales arrangements....they do have a sales website (for a location in osaka)...here is 1 of their listings based on a 94 C2 with kevlar flares, fully track prepared.....streetable, stripped & full new paint in 997 GT3 rs color (interior & exterior prepared by rauh welt) 69,000km, jpy5.1 million....with strong yen say US$60k.

Can you translate the decal page. Do they sell the RWB side decals and windscreen decals and also offer international shipping?

the rauh welt windscreen banner is jpy3000 & the small rauh welt begriff decals are 1000jpy.

there is no order page on their home site or info re shipping..............you might want to try & write them directly at
r-w.begriff@ezweb.ne.jp

if that does not work let me know
