This 800-HP RWB 993 Laps Tsukuba Circuit In An Effortless 58 Seconds

1/5/20217:40 estFiled to: Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Though the shape and the sheer presence of Rauh-Welt's vehicles are all inspired by old-world motorsport, their striking appearance is appreciated by more folks loitering in parking lots than racing fans sitting in grandstands. Not every one of Akira Nakai's creations make it to the track, but this particular example, thankfully, does. There's a …

This RWB 964RS Is A Circuit Scalpel At The Legendary Tsukuba

12/7/20207:38 estFiled to: Porsche 964, Porsche Race CarsBy: Tommy ParryComment

  https://youtu.be/SedyINovCYo Taking a 964 and backdating it to look like a methamphetamine-addled 2.7 RS isn't something that many do, but with Akira Nakai's guidance, it can be done tastefully. Widened fenders, a functional aerodynamic package, and a few characteristically quirky Rauh-Welt Begriff touches help this green 964 stand out …

A History of Rauh-Welt’s Widebody Porsches

7/9/20209:20 estFiled to: Porsche 964, Porsche 993, Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

Akira Nakai's always had a wandering eye for the air-cooled 911, but before he'd laid a hand on a Porsche, he had an affinity for the Toyota Corolla. After a decade spent building and drifting AE86 Corollas, Nakai not only started his own racing team, Rough World, but had started developing a distinct style as a craftsman. By taking what he learned …

This Rauh-Welt 965 Turbo is Punk Rock Perfection

2/6/20203:00 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Tommy ParryComment

The natural path of car ownership for an avid VW geek begins with a Golf and ends with a 911. Brian Scotto is no different, and after saving, selling some stock, and reaping the benefits of the housing collapse, he made a white 965 Turbo his very own. Being a man of style and taste, he used his vast network and contacted a man who's become …

This 964 Turbo RWB Has All Of The Show To Match All Of Its Go

10/25/201911:06 estFiled to: Porsche 964By: Tommy ParryComment

With those unmistakable flares and outrageous aero pumping up this classic Porsche, it's a feast for the eyes. There's something about the RWB shape which is so outrageous and gaudy that the purists still give them an approving nod. Power one with a 3.3-liter mill from Japanese tuner Promodet, and the package is enough to make anyone with a drop of …

Watch The Newest RWB Build, Orlando’s “Fighting Night” Come to Life In Stunning 4k

12/18/20163:57 estFiled to: Tuned PorschesBy: Pepper GirlComment

It's pretty much de rigueur these days to document the build of a new RAUH-Welt Begriff Porsche. When Akira Nakia-san comes to town, the cameras come out in abundance. As the number of Porsches he's touched continues to grow, so does the library of build documentaries. However, not all documentaries are created equal. Chris Petruccio and …

Rauh Welt Porsche For Sale On eBay – Los Angeles Build #1

1/5/20154:04 estFiled to: For SaleBy: Bradley Brownell8 Comments

Numbering perhaps only in the dozens, Rauh-Welt Porsches are a bit thin on the ground, and honestly this is the first time I've seen one come up for sale. Usually, if you want one of your own, you find yourself a nice 964 or 993, order up the not-insubstantially expensive pieces of bodywork, have them painted in your color of choice, pick our your …

Rauh-Welt Porsche Racer Crushed After Fall From Crane Truck At Twin-Ring Motegi

7/27/20144:57 estFiled to: LifeStyleBy: Bradley Brownell2 Comments

UPDATE: 7/29/2014 Additional photos of the damage were posted to the Rauh-Welt Begriff facebook page, along with a short statement. RWB post said: It was dropped when I take down with a circuit crane. It is responsibility of the circuit.  The Idlers 12 Hour race at the Twin Ring Motegi in Japan is quite an interesting event, being that …
