my friend's RWB, completed last week. Nakai-san came over and the build was painstakingly documented in photos and videos.

yes, absolutely not for everyone, but it sure is unique!

Thanks for sharing

How is the workmanship? Is it just a hack job like a lot of people seem to think?

Watch the videos & decide for yourself

I think I've seen all the RWB videos on the net. I personally like them, but it seems I'm in the minority on this board. Although I will say, I've never actually seen how he treats the metal after he cuts it for the flares. I'm sure there's some kind of rust prevention going on.

I love them as well. Works of art.

These RWB builds remind me of bad plastic surgery. Its like putting collagen lips and a jokers face on a previously beautiful woman.

In the same league as female body-builders.

I've always liked the spartan, scuffed-up, "track-rat" RWB cars of Japan...in the last
few years (as popularity grew) it seems as they're built for the mad-tyte-stance-bro
scene...with stock powertrains. This one looks like it has air suspension?

Which part?

Exactly this. I used to think the RWB thing was cool when I saw the the tracked versions in Japan. The new versions are all just show cars; especially the 993 RWB cars. Extreme for the sake of being extreme. "collagen lips" on a model is a good analogy. I'm ready for the fad to die so they can stop cutting up 993s.

My favorite is the duck tailed 964.
