I've decided to put my race car up for trade. It's got a pretty interesting history:
It was first built by the owners of VQSwap.com as their personal vehicle/drift car. Here is a video and a couple pics of it when it was yellow and supercharged:

It competed in Formula Drift 2007-2008.

After this, I don't know the exact history but I know the supercharger kit was taken off and it was sold. At some point in 2009/10 it was purchased by D1/Formula Drift driver Robbie Nishida with intentions of using it again in Formula D. In November of 2010 I purchased it from Robbie when I decided to move back to Texas from Japan.

This is what it looked like when I bought it:

Since then, I've painted in flat black in and out because I hate yellow. I've installed a switch panel, handbrake, mounted the seat, harness, rewired all the lights and fans, aligned it, replaced the axles and bolts, installed a brand new Tomei 2-way diff and HEY-MAN knuckles, and had it dyno tuned at J-Tran studios.

Here are a few pics as it was built and as it sits now:

I'm only wanting to trade this so I can have something more comfortable to drive. I've done the full out race car thing for years and it was cool in Japan but I'm ready for something more daily driveable. I don't really want a turbo car but I'm open to a lot. I would prefer:
350z
G35 2 or 4 door

I open to a lot more so shoot me your offers. The worst I can say is no. Be prepared for me to ask for cash on top if your car isn't of equal value. Also, I don't have the time/money to drive this outside of Houston so be prepared to come get it.

SALE PRICE IS $15,000
HAS CLEAN CALIFORNIA TITLE

Ok, so no need for trades. I bought a Cressida. So here's the real sale price

$9000 as is or $7000 without diff, knuckles, and wheels. It will have those parts just not the ones currently on it.
