Wikipedia Plot
17-year old Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) is a social outcast from Alabama in his high school in Oro Valley, Arizona with a passion for cars. His parents separated when he was three-years old, and he has a police record for reckless driving with 2 offenses. To avoid arrest, he and mom move a lot, resulting in Sean's lack of friends.
One afternoon, after school, a local rich kid called Clay (Zachary Ty Bryan), who is the captain of the school's football team, the Ducks, mocks Sean's builted 1971 Chevrolet Monte Carlo. Sean insults him about his "daddy's Viper", which causes Clay to burst, and while Sean is driving away, he shatters the rear window of Sean's Monte Carlo with a baseball. Sean then challenges Clay to a street race, to which Sean wants to race only for pink slips. After some retalliation, Clay's girlfriend, Cindy, offers herself as the prize.
The spot for a race is chosen; a construction site for a new suburbia scheduled to be built. The start goes badly for Sean, and Clay is in the lead. Sean drives through an alley to catch up with Clay, and he drives through a unfinished house. He passes Clay, who retaliates by trying to ram him off the road, damaging his Viper in the process. Sean T-bones Clay and he crashes into a cement pipe, but Sean loses control and he flips over several times, totaling his Monte Carlo. Later on, Clay and Sean are both arrested for illegal street racing and property damage.
Because of his numerous brushes with the law in the past, and also tired of moving away all the time, Sean's mother sends him to Tokyo, Japan, to live with his father, who is stationed as a U.S. Naval officer. Upon arriving at his father's home in Tokyo, he is warned by his father not to stir up any trouble, and to not go anywhere near a car or he will return to the U.S. to serve prison time, as he had already committed the maximum of 3 criminal offences.
In a new high school, Sean is an outcast like before, but he meets Twinkie (Bow Wow), an extremely business-minded fellow American immigrant, who sells pre-owned goods around the school, and he drives a custom-designed, but odd Hulk-themed 2004 Volkswagen Touran van. Twinkie introduces Sean to the drift racing scene in Tokyo, at the parking lot reserved for street racers and gatherers. On the lot, Sean has a verbal confrontation with Takashi (Brian Tee) – also known as "Drift King" or DK, because he was talking to Takashi's girlfriend, Neela (Nathalie Kelley), whom he met earlier in school.
After the confront, Takashi challenges Sean to the race, and Han Seul-Oh (Sung Kang), Takashi's friend and business partner, lends him his Nissan Silvia S-15 but due to Sean's lack of knowledge on how to drift, he is defeated by Takashi's Nissan 350Z and his skills, and destroys the Silvia. After the race, Han warns him not to leave town. As he returns home, his father confronts him, and they have an argument, but eventually Sean agrees to stay away from racing. The next day, Han meets Sean after school, who is now driving an orange-black 1994 Mazda RX-7 FD and he tells him that he must work for him to repay the damage done to his car.
Han becomes Sean's friend and teaches him to drift, giving him a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX (with the WRC tuning) to represent Han in future races. Han explains to him that he is helping him because Sean is the only one who is unafraid of Takashi (calling him DK's
