Looks great though!

reportedly highly streetable, but no question tire rub is in play.
nakai started off in drift racing....his track car runs a fully tuned 3.8l engine (modified & running 6 pmo' s as i recall for aspiration. forget the other modifications. plus 360hp so not far off 340 or so at the wheels.
very light (most window glass replaced, as as doors, hood, interior fully gutted only 1 recaro) & wide flares are quite a bit lighter than the steel that was cut away under them.

Recaro SPG is not light enough to be a driver's seat and is replaced by a kevlar seat with minimal padding. I love it!!

Does RWB perform motor mods on the cars or just body kits & suspension?

body work only, he works with other pro-shops in the area to refine suspension/alignment & engine work. they are listed on his website i think.
primarily here:
http://www.promodet.co.jp/tuning.html

this is an overview of the co. from a recent edition of eurotuner magazine.
