this might help clarify

Ahh Fatlace. Excellent. Revscene could be like Fatlace if they aspired to be.

Thanks Matsuda


Edit: This guy is similar to George Barris or Carroll Shelby but less concerned with his "image" and more about enjoying the process of building these cars and driving them. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I respect his dedication and passion. I'm glad this thread came about.

another interview with Nakai-San.

Thanks for the vid Matsuda. Pretty cool guy. I'd love a 993 TT in stock form but i can understand now why people have a raging hardon for this Nakai-san.

What's the name of the other shop then?

Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems that all that the guy does is install wide body kits onto 911s. His workmanship and style seems to be why people like him. I'm just curious to know if this is all he has to offers. An appearance pack. Does this guy perform performance mods as well? Do the cars actually handle/drive better/faster after he is done with it?

Matsuda 02-10-2013 09:42 AM
belaud basicly explains it here:

Nice to see someone enjoying his passion for building cars for people who enjoy driving.

Spotted on Cornwall this morning and had to follow him around til I was late for an appointment, just to see/hear it.

I've been told that apparently the facebook link in the original thread (and what caused the drama) is a local company/website/shop that had nothing to do with the actual build but is trying to get publicity from it all. The car was apparently built and worked on at another shop. This would explain why some were saying that the shop was in New West and some were saying North Van.
Apologies if it came off as trying to advertise for the shop in the deleted thread, it was simply a build up thread onto the car and was not intending to create the dramatica.

:suspicious: huh???

Ruf doesn't even care to mod classic aircooled 911s anymore so who cares. They can go play with Boxsters, Caymans and watercooled 911s all day long.

Rauh Welt is in their own league.

RUF is a manufacturer, not a tuner/modification company

They do both. In fact, they do(or did) sell 'BTR kit' to make your 911 a BTR.

However that was not my point...

Timpo 02-10-2013 04:58 PM
actually, they do sell 'conversion kit' for many Porsches

Saw this fabulous beast cruising on 4th Ave this morning. Dude, gave me a strong thumbs up when we pulled beside him. Looks like he is enjoying it to the max! Love seeing that it is being used and enjoyed. I made my wife follow him so we could get close up. Felt like a stalker but this car must be stalked. lol!

beproud 02-10-2013 06:02 PM
that kit blows my mind! it's so over the top, but clean at the same time eh

Indeed. BRB thread cleanup.

Graeme S 02-10-2013 07:46 PM
OPEN FOR BUSINESS! This thread is for the car and posche/porsche-esque stuff only. PM me if you have an issue with how I deleted or edited things.




FYI: 43 posts deleted, four(?) edited. Keep it clean y'alls.

320icar 02-10-2013 07:55 PM
Much better!

I think just about every picture of nakai-san I've ever seen involves him smoking a cig, covered in lots of dirt and grease. It's a great look.

He was such an awesome guy to hang around with.
He even gave us a ride back to the train station when we visited him last summer.
