Uncle Posted 3April, 2015 Report Share Posted 3April, 2015 It reads like ACA sounds. No real love for RWB cars from me but the article is not much more than inflammatory for the of inflammatory's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turboT Posted 3April, 2015 Author Report Share Posted 3April, 2015 For pure outrageous I don't mind a bit of RWB, but would be wasted on me as I'd lose half the body kit as soon as a drove out of the garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shady Speedway Posted 3April, 2015 Report Share Posted 3April, 2015 1) In 1980 if I had one as a match box toy it would have been my favorite......... hands down. 2) If you know modified vehicles and look close, deep down they are as rough as guts. 3) The more they plunder, the rarer they get. 4) The dish on those front wheels break may rules for steering geometry.

LeeM Posted 3April, 2015 Report Share Posted 3April, 2015 Better than buying a 911 and breaking it up into bits to sell! RWB has its place, as do Singers, backdated, forward dated, race rep, standard, concourse etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh Posted 3April, 2015 Report Share Posted 3April, 2015 I've seen worse things done to a 911. Great to see them getting enjoyed, be it in a fat suit or not IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Man Posted 4April, 2015 Report Share Posted 4April, 2015 Haters always going hate! I have a big soft spot for them. I think they look amazing........ Though I'm sure they drive like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiller Posted 4April, 2015 Report Share Posted 4April, 2015 I'm a hater. This is the "bosozoku" version of a 911 and I hate that too. At least the japs mostly ruin land barges that never drove well in the first place. I'm not necessarily a 100% purist but this is sacrilegious.

I have watched a number of videos showing how Nakai San attacks the cars with a cutting saw and fills the gaps with silicon sealant. Not pretty at all, and yes the steering geometry would be totally screwed.........but I still like the way they look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to look up "Bosozuko". Interesting stuff, however a little off camber for me. You can'thonestly put that sort of abomination in the same boat as RWB though.
