Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) is involved in a crash during a local street race. Because of his numerous brushes with the law in the past, his 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, or he will return to the U.S. to serve jail time.
Sean meets Twinkie (Bow Wow), a fellow American, who introduces him to the drift racing scene. Sean has a verbal confrontation with Takashi (Brian Tee) - also known as DK (short for Drift King) and nephew to a local yakuza boss - because he was talking to DK's girlfriend, Neela (Nathalie Kelley). They race and Sean is defeated and destroys the car lent to him by Han (Sung Kang), DK's business partner. The next day, Han meets Sean after school and tells Sean that he must work for him to repay the damage done to his car.
Han becomes Sean's friend, and teaches him to drift. Han does this because Sean is the only one unafraid of DK (calling him DK's "kryptonite"). Neela and Sean go on a date which precipitates DK to beat him up. Angry after seeing Sean's bruises, Neela leaves DK to be with Sean.

Later, Sean, now the Drift King, is challenged to a race in the parking lot by Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), a good friend of Han.
