The Nissan NPT-90 was a racing car developed in 1990 for Nissan Motors by Nissan Performance Technology Incorporated, formerly Electramotive Engineering. It replaced the highly successful GTP ZX-Turbo that had won the IMSA GT Championship in 1989, went on to win the championship in 1990 and 1991, and was retired by Nissan at the end of the 1992 season. Although officially the NPT-90, it kept racing with the GTP ZX-Turbo name painted on it so Nissan could keep using that name to market the 300ZX road car. With Toyota and Jaguar competition coming, Nissan's North American motorsports division built an all-new car instead of the Lola-based chassis, with a rounder, narrower cockpit, smaller nose ducts and large vertical turbocharger snorkels at the sides. It kept the 3.0 litre turbocharged VG30 V6, now with a four-valve head.
