Blog #2: Interview with RWB

 


JDM Legend: RWB Akira Nakai Special Interview 


Rauh-Welt Begriff (RWB) is one of the most legendary car tuners in Japan, known for its unique approach to modifying Porsches. RWB is founded by Akira Nakai. Unlike typical precision-based tuning, Nakai-san embraces a more intuitive and artistic style.

The video is a interview with Nakai-san. It showcases the philosophy behind RWB that it's not just about modifying cars but about creating something that reflects individuality and freedom. Nakai-san’s explanation of “rough” styling isn’t about being careless, but rather about a natural, unmeasured approach—like an artist shaping their vision. 

What I find most impressive is his dedication to personally working on every car. He travels worldwide to install his kits, ensuring that each build is done with his own hands rather than through mass production.

  1. こんいちは Su さん!Thank you for sharing this video! Interviews are a great way to hear how everyday Japanese sounds. Not in a song or anime, but in a normal conversation.
    I liked RWB's comment on car's talking to each other. That the mechanics don't speak to each other, but the cars they work on do. I've heard something similar from musicians. I love the idea of people's passions speaking louder than their words!
