Rauh-Welt Begriff (RWB,) is one of the most notoriously successful, yet controversial, Japanese car tuners to exist today. With his army of modified Porsche 911’s, Akira Nakai has built a world famous tuning company-frequently circulating through automotive press giants like Speedhunters, Hoonigan, Illest, Fatlace, and Auto Otaku. From his first Rough World AE86’s, to Porsche 930’s, 964’s, and 996’s, many find his modification techniques to be…. well, rough!
Grab a Stella and your air saw, and sit back in your leather armchair, as James Pumphrey tells the story of the REAL Nakai san, and the history of RWB.
HUGE thanks to our friends Brian Scotto of Hoonigan, and Rutledge Wood of Top Gear USA, for introducing us to their sweet...sweet RWB Porsches. And to Dino Dalle Carbonare of Speedhunters, for hooking us up with the inside RWB scoop, and this spicy RWB Rotana image for our thumbnail.

    • @@alfredoladino9838r "Rauh-Welt Begriff Sekund Entwicklung" means "Roughly-world term, second development" with "second" in the sense of time like "sixty seconds". "Rauh-Welt" could also be a "Roughworld ...", a world/planet made of "roughness". Yes, doesn't make any sense. "Rauh-Welt Begriff Zweite Entwicklung" means "Roughly world term, second development". I guess what Nakai-San wanted to express is something like "Rauhe Welt - Konzept. Stufe Zwei" so something like "rough world - concept, Mark Two". But as long as hard German words sound cool for you guys, I am fine with "Rauh-Welt Begriff Zweite Entwicklung".

  • That was very interesting, my son and i were at the debut of Nakai-San's first car built in Canada, Royal Ocean in 2013 and since have been to most of the builds in the Vancouver area. I am not a purist or a big Porsche fan but i enjoy the work of Nakai-San. There are a few purists here that have an RWB or two. Due to the Corona virus he has not been here since last December, he is a skilled and humble person. I have his autograph on many items including a lens hood on one of my Nikon lenses. I will likely never have the money to have one made but if did i would have him make a car for me too! He does like his Winstons, Coffee, Sushi etc it is always an event when he comes to town.

    • Race cars needs to be in “ “‘s in the above statement. These are often built with the tiptronic (underperforming, slow shifting auto) trans and are far from being prepped as a track/race car. All bark no bite (poser) cars are what’s ruining the automotive scene. It misleads perspective enthusiasts and slows the potential for them to become good builders themselves. A body mod for looks alone is like a maturing model desperately attached to their younger appearance. Off putting at best. This is a fad and will pass...along with these cars opportunity for fair value resale. Remember the cringey Gemballa cars? Not many do. Cars of this magnitude should be stimulating on a physical visceral level, not only visually appealing to certain demo’s.

That car reminded me of the Group 5 racers, but with the chassis of a 90's 911 underneath. I'm a Porsche fan and it surprised me in a good way, not all Porsche fans have a telephone pole stuck up their exhausts.

  • It’s 2022 and the world’s taste in cars are so different now. I use to say “worsened” but I’ve come into terms that the ship has sailed. We can’t buy Supras, RX-7s, R34s, or even 86s for a decent price now. Heck, EGs and Type-R’s are just plain too much now. The time of affordable builds are kinda gone-there’s exceptions but it’s sad 😞. Donut, these Up to Speed episodes are preserving car culture. You are doing all enthusiasts an amazing opportunity to share these videos to our children one day even if their taste is not the same as ours. This episode made me cry-I remember the Pandora One and it gave me a desire to own one of these things one day, launched my love for lime green 911s, and car culture in general. Thank you for keeping the spirit of car culture, Top Gear, and all those Saturday morning car shows alive. Love you guys
