A years-long build commissioned to the experts at RWBLA, this 1991 Porsche 964 Carrera 4 was the subject of a Super Wide body conversion, a comprehensive 3-stage PPG finish in Lido Gold by RDBLA, a reupholstered Grigio leather interior with Alcantara and Houndstooth, and various race-focused upgrades. It was further enhanced with a Bilstein race suspension, Fabspeed RSR headers, an aftermarket exhaust system, and custom Rotiform wheels. Previously listed on PCARMARKET, this one-off RWB build is now being offered for auction once again by its seller out of California.
The custom RWB Super Wide bodywork was hand-fitted by specialist Nakai San including an RSR-inspired front bumper, an IROC-style rear wing, and modified bumpers, rocker panels, and bolt-on fenders. Details include RWB headlights, taillights, and side markers, along with chrome-finished horn grilles and matching taillight bezels. Custom-crafted and polished Rotiform concave wheels have been mounted with Toyo R888 tires. As the bodywork came to completion, the example was sent to RDBLA and stripped to bare metal for a 3-stage PPG refinish in the extremely rare shade of Lido Gold.
The cabin has been tastefully customized with Grigio leather complemented by matching Alcantara inlays and Houndstooth inserts. Scheel-Mann seats have been fitted along with a quick-release custom steering wheel, and Rennline interior accessories including aluminum pedals, RS door panels, an RS dashboard kit, and race mats.
Power is derived from an air-cooled 3.6-liter flat-six engine rated at 247 HP stock. All four wheels are driven through a G50 5-speed manual transmission. The seller states the engine and transmission underwent a complete rebuild within the last 5k miles. The build also includes a Bilstein race suspension, Fabspeed RSR headers, and an aftermarket exhaust.
This sale will include a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “I am an experienced Porsche collector and I have now built 6 of these in total. There is no doubt that this is my absolute best build. Please see the video of Akira Nakai putting in his expert work. The videos and pictures speak for themselves. The winning bidder will receive a complementary underside dry ice blast before delivery.”

I love it. As a fellow RWB Owner I can say these cars are one of a kind.
I understand, but not even an estimate?
@Cherche-pepite have yet to dyno
After all the considerable work that's been done on this car, what is the current hp rating? Thanks.
@JobyWon Montana title and yes it will if the stock exhaust is back on
Does this have Ca title? Will it pass smog? Thanks!
Hey guys, feel free to comment any questions about the car. I built 6 RWB’s here in LA over the years with Nakaisan and I built this one last as it was my most optimized build from experience with the others. I wanted to build a car I’d actually drive, and enjoy driving. The others were way too track like and not comfortable or practical to drive. I am a porsche collector (back to g body and up to 997.2) I have other interesting stuff like Veyron etc. Thank you for looking and best of luck!
@RumbleAuto welding and seamless bodywork
@flatcrank thank you - I left it this way to enjoy a comfortable cruising car that rides so smooth and not like a track car. I built 5 others with Nakai and this was the last one. All others I built felt too track like and I never drove them because they were so uncomfortable. This feels like a bentley GT, comfortable and smooth. The build was in 2015 with Nakai but it sat stored for years until RDBLA finished it last year
@tedskilla - thanks for your answer. Do you know if the entire roof was replaced, or if they welded in a sunroof delete panel and then finished it to be seamless prior to paint? Thanks!
@Damaho912 yep it’s super wide
@773captain will have to measure tomorrow
@RumbleAuto deleted during the RWB build process by RDBLA
At what point was this cars sunroof removed, and how was it done? Thanks!
Looks like less than a year ago the high bid was $175,000 but it didn't meet reserve?
@seller what is the total width of the rear for trailing purposes? Will that fit between 80” wheel wells?? Thanks!
Yes. The wide body kit is um, W-I-D-E!
Bid in the amount of $60,000
Bid in the amount of $50,000
That video looks to be 20 years ago, Akira Nakai looks like a young man, courageously taking to a quarter panel. : )
The RAUH-Welt devotees have a rare opportunity for a turn key car.
I'd say this deserves a 993 GT2 powertrain … maybe 500-700hp, daily driver, a/c …
