Formula Drift ProAm 2005 Z33 - $12k OBO
***Anybody SERIOUSLY interested in checking out the car in person can see it in action and get a ride in it this Saturday (August 10th) at Cupcake Meet in Corpus Christi, TX. We'll be doing a drift demo throughout the entire day, so I'll be there all day driving the car, so feel free to stop by and say hi and let me know that you're interested in buying/trading for the car or whatever.***
Considering I've made myself go broke and have discovered I'd rather be a normal car enthusiast for now and get back on my feet financially, I'm going to be selling my competition drift car.
The car has been consistently qualifying 6th - 9th all season long with no problems, and has pretty much exclusively gotten knocked out of the competitions by the cars that end up getting 1st or 2nd after very close battles that ultimately are usually lost by my own driver error considering this is my 2nd season tandeming. The motor / drive train is solid, suspension is solid, it just needs bodywork. If you'd like links to any build threads, let me know. There are plenty. The one I kept up with the most was my thread on Driftworks.
POSITIVES: This car is VERY competitive even as N/A, and everybody that has ever driven it absolutely loves it. Will Parsons loved how it drove, same with Aaron Losey. Slap some turbos on it and you'll be good for whatever you want to do with it. Suspension is good to go, motor is good to go, you could literally buy it and immediately go compete in it. I got all new gaskets above the head gaskets in the off season, checked everything and the motor is still looking great. I change the oil after every event, it never overheats, it's seriously a super reliable car. All last year I competed and daily drove it, apart from the whole no air conditioning thing it was perfect. Still have the carpets to throw back in if you were wanting to daily it or whatever, and I still have the A/C bracket, condenser, and two of the lines for it. While the exterior is rough, everything underneath and the frame is still completely straight.
NEGATIVES: It's a competitive drift car. It's loud, it gets hot inside without A/C and carpets. Passenger door speaker is blown, driver side one is still working but not super well. Biggest negative, the car needs quite a bit of exterior work. There are dents in both rear quarter panels from other cars' tires hitting them, the rear bumper needs to be repainted, front bumper needs to be repainted and needs some fiber glass work as of the last event. The bodywork is the biggest downfall of the car. Some of the dents could be repaired with a good ole hammer.
Hoping to get $12,000 or best offer, also open to trades. Trade offers I'll consider: R33, JZX, S14's, S15's (Not interested in stock or KA cars with no paint and emusa coilovers), any anything else cool. Want something RWD, planning on building a cool street car. I'd prefer an R33 because if it sells that's what I'll be getting anyway, but shoot me an offer. Worst I can say is no.

VIN: JN1AZ34005N610704
I believe this is the correct vin, all I have are crappy pictures I took when I needed to have it for a demo. The car is currently at my girlfriends parents ranch because the HOA at my parents place disliked the car and my trailer "taking up so much space" on the street (yet they don't say anything about some dude up the street leaving his god damn boat blocking visibility and half of the street on a hill AND a bend), but I'll be getting the car Friday for a demo out in Corpus Christi and I'll double check that this is the 100% correct vin.
Car weight: 3000lbs
Steering Angle: 41.something* of static lock
HP/TQ: ~260+whp, ~240tq (dyno tuned with different header setup at 255whp/235wtq)
Engine
Drivetrain
Suspension
Wheels/Braking
Interior
Exterior
Will also throw in: everything to relocate battery to the back, stainless steel lines, a whole bunch of misc interior / motor crap, factory carpet, aftermarket crank pulley, probably some other junk that I have lying around.
Pictures
I could seriously overflow this with the millions of pictures and videos there are of the car, but I'll try and keep this short and sweet. Seriously massive amounts of media I can send you if you're really interested.
Videos
The car is in this quite a bit. You can see how much of a smoke machine it can be at around the 1:10 / 1:20 marks.
Car is in this quite a bit too.
A video from the last round of competition when our makeshift team "Team Shitshow" won the team competition.
First few clips speak for themselves. The car is awesome. Smoke show @ 1:29.
Obviously this shows the car getting hit, but it also shows how super reliable this car is. The frame is 100% fine and everything that got broken (Which was just the toe arm) was replaced the week following the event.
The car is in this a LOT for the first 2ish minutes or whatever. This was at a demo in Dallas.
Another demo from the beginning of this year. Skip to ~1:20ish, then 3:15ish.
This is a super solid car for anybody that wants a competition ready, competitive drift car. I've kept up with 500whp sc300's, 400hp S14's easily, and it can no sweat hang with HR 350z's. Not only is the car super reliable but it's cheap to run, it can make some great smoke without burning through a million tires in 5 minutes, then you can drive it home.
If no one buys it, it'll be sitting in my garage. If I can scrounge up enough cash it'll be competing at our ProAm right before FD Texas in September, but after that it'll just be sitting in the garage waiting to be purchased or I'll just keep it and do body work and other junk when I can afford it in the coming years. Don't miss out on picking up a great car, the only reason I'm getting rid of it is because although the whole competitive drifting thing was fun, in reality I don't have the funds to maintain full competitive and demo seasons and would rather get a new car to turn into an awesome RWD street car to enjoy on the weekends and do other regular car enthusiast stuff.
