RACING: The Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo at Z Car Garage!

Filed under: Featured Cars and Projects,Racing,Z31
by Alvin G @ 3:00 pm on April 15, 2024

 

The Championship-winning 1988 Nissan GTP ZX-Turbo is at Z Car Garage. This iconic race car was driven by Geoff Brabham and John Morton, known for de-throning the Porsche 962 in IMSA racing with 8 straight wins. Enjoy the photos of chassis #8801 with a full feature coming soon to zcarblog.com!

 

Thanks to Dean Case and Greg Nelson of Nissan Motorsports for the opportunity to have this legend here at Z Car Garage.

 

It’s surreal to see the car that has been a poster on our wall actually inside the shop. Rob had to get out his R/C car and another poster from the front office:

 

Enjoy this video highlighting the epic 1988 IMSA season with Morton and Brabahm in the GTP ZX-T:
