If you have kept up with my posts from various RWB meets and track events over the last year, you will have noticed that Nakai doesn’t always necessarily go for the double stacked wing look on all the cars he builds. Which is precisely why, when faced with the decision of which car to pick for me car spotlight last week, I chose this particular 964.
The satin finish of the bumper and fenders, the red front canards color matched with the side mirrors and of course the purple treatment to the headlights definitely gives this 911 a unique look…
…not to mention the big front and rear overfenders that help push the wheels out in pure tire-rubbing aggression.
But it’s the spoiler-less rear that really makes it stand out among the brightly colored selection of 911 that were present at the shop that day. Nakai has left the stock Carrera electrically-raising spoiler in place…
…allowing the rest of the RWB treatment to do the talking. Sometimes simplicity works so well; who needs downforce anyways!!
But the car is far from completed as Nakai explains. This is another 911 that will be participating at this weekend’s idlers endurance race in Motegi, and the owner has made sure not to forget the bare essentials like a lightweight bucket seat equipped with harnesses as well as a racing steering wheel in the form of a squared off Sparco item.
Aside from an aftermarket exhaust the stock 3.6L engine remains untouched.
Wheels are 18-inch SSR Professors SP1s, painted in RWB black and wrapped in Kumho Ecsta V700 rubber, 265/35 up front and 305/30 at the rear.
By the time the idlers event rolls around this car will look slightly different…
…there are still improvements that need to be done. Maybe Nakai will match the rest of the body with the flat black of the bumpers, skirts and fenders. Who knows. Personally I like it the way it is, it definitely has character.

Great post as always Dino. Thanks.
It's interesting to see RWB's lot not filled with any Porsches. You get to see the exterior of the shop fully.
Desktops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This car is awesome, but that steering wheel is really fantastic.
Desktops! Desktops! Desktops!
Dunno... I usually dig the RWB Porsches, but without any kind of wing or spoiler, it looks... Wrong. At least your usual Turbo-style duck tail spoiler would be needed here...
Definitely killing it.
I am not usually a porsche fan. But god damn thats a sweet car.
Where's the wing?
I just realised that the wingless look works great on wideeeeeee 930/964s!!
i dont understand the big deal with these cars. european ricers. bodykits wheels and no engine mods
sweet definitely looks different without that huge wing on the back!
DESSKKKTOOOPPP!!!!!!!!!!
Desktops for sure.
LUVIN THE OPENIN PIC! BEST ANGLE OF THE CAR!!! XD
It's features like these that have sparked my interest in Porsche again. Locally they are driven by either retired ladies, so the car is never truly driven. Or, treated like a status symbol.
Anyone happen to have a link to the weekend's race? Would be interested to see a bunch of these tearing around the track.
yes! this is the one i wanted to see.. it almost feels wrong to see a RWB porsche without the wing but i think its my favorite! simple ftw
The rear shots are calling for desktops!!!
yes, desktops +1 please
needs a gt wing or something back there... looks wierd
No doubt it looks different with the paint, boddy kit and wheels. But, are RWB cars just posing oriented?
Oh so beautiful~ swoon
speechless.
All show, no go.
If the people that cry about rauh welt cars lack of power mods don't realise that its a mainly body shop by now, they never will... (Another entry in the "don't ask your body man for a turbo" diary)
Can't really call them European ricers when the cars are being raced on the track.
Looks freakin dope!
f you worker be go s some jap d
I want pics of the red 964!! LOVING this as well!
I wasn't used to a RWB Porsche without the wing, but this is somenting different with the stock electrically-raising spoiler. Was looking to buy an Eva-01 Chogokin XS-13 as a gift and this car reminds me of it. With the red and purple, maybe the owner is an Evangelion 2.0 fan.
RWB has inspired me to gut my e39, install a single black Recaro seat, and replacing my steering wheel with a 350mm 'Personal' wheel. That look is so hard and a weight saver!
ffs people on here havnt got a clue , it has got a spoiler that radiator type panel on the rear lifts up at a certain speed so its got active aero not just a crudely stuck on tower of carbon like normal rwb's i like RWB's anyway so i think they all look quite good abit samey now though should try a modern day gt3rs, see what they can do with that now uwe gemballa has died the founder of gemballa.
that is awe-inspiring without the huge wing, I totally love it.
Ppppplease give us desktops. Especially of pics 1 and 9. This car is the kind of car that gives people inspiration!
This 911 looks very special. It's a nice variation from the usual RWB Porsches.
uhh... they actually race them on the track. not sure why you would think they're european ricers.
The clean look is awesome! I love it!
DESKTOP!!!!
Whe wouldnt a body shop do a ton of engine work????????? They MUST be a bunch of ricers huh?
If you dont know what your talking about then STFU. These cars see more track time then a train does. Not to mention in an endurance event you want maximum reliability so a stock engine would make sense.
Rock on RWB im lovin it
beautiffulllllll love da front bumper cover with da redd insert
Hey Dino, I know this is old but is it possible to provide me with a wallpaper of this 964? It looks great, reminds me of RWB Rough Soul which may have been this car too. Thanks
