The Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo, also known as the GTP ZX-T, was a series of racing cars that Electramotive Engineering developed for Nissan Motors to compete in the IMSA GT Championship. Running from 1985 to 1990, the cars were known for being the first to defeat the Porsche 962, which had dominated IMSA's premier GTP category, and they brought Nissan the constructors championship and the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1989 and 1990. During 1990 the newer NPT-90 replaced it. The name came from the engine it shared with the production Nissan 300ZX, the turbocharged VG30ET V6, which was extensively modified to cope with racing stress. In 1984 Nissan named Electramotive its official North American racing development arm to establish Nissan in the United States after the Datsun name was phased out, planning to use IMSA to showcase its technology as it had at Le Mans from 1983.
