At the time,\u00a0Electramotive\u00a0was starting to run low in the financing department and needed to shore up funding to continue development on the cars. Nissan Japan signed a deal with the team, renaming them the Nissan Performance Technology Incorporated (NPTI).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>By 1990, the team moved into a brand-new facility\u00a0in Vista, California.

Although the cars were developed by NPTI, Nissan used the cars to run under the GTP ZX-Turbo moniker so they can use the new model\u2019s success to market their 300ZX road cars. Trevor Harris, a well-known racing designer, was the chief designer and trackside engineer for the NPT-90 GTP car that was used by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.driverdb.com\/drivers\/geoff-brabham\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Geoff Brabham<\/a> for four years.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><iframe class=\"zeen-lazy-load-base zeen-lazy-load\" title=\"800bhp Nissan GTP flies round Road Atlanta | on board\" src=\"about:blank\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/odwekxjGY7k\" width=\"885\" height=\"498\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><noscript><iframe title=\"800bhp Nissan GTP flies round Road Atlanta | on board\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/odwekxjGY7k\" width=\"885\" height=\"498\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\r\n<p>Nissan GTO ZX- T driving at Goodwood.

It made\u00a0its\u00a0debut in the Topeka 300km Camel Grand Prix at Heartland Park, with <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bob_Earl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bob Earl<\/a> and Derek Daly behind the wheel. In its\u00a0debut\u00a0season, #90-01\u00a0was able to grab\u00a0three race wins at Sears Point, Mid-Ohio, and Road America with Brabham as the driver. Brabham would then claim the GTP Driver\u2019s Championship with both the GTP-ZX Turbo and the NPT-90. Nissan would clinch the 1990 Manufacturer\u2019s Championship.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In 1991, the success of the 90-01 would continue as it claimed four top-five finishes, with two second-place finishes at the Road America and Watkins Glen. They would also secure a third-place finish at Mid-Ohio. In the Driver\u2019s Championship, Brabham and Chip Robinson finished first and second, respectively, both racing for NPTI. Nissan claimed another Manufacturer\u2019s Championship win for this year too.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-10_1598883330-1-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\r\n<figcaption>1990 Nissan NPT-90<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-13_1598883331-1-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593789\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-16_1598883333-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-spacer\" style=\"height: 32px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although #90-01 was originally scheduled for retirement and the end of the 1991 season, the crash of two of its sister cars during the first half of the 1992 season brought its retirement to a halt.\u00a0The team brought it out for racing after it received an up-to-date mechanical upgrade and added 1992 spec bodywork. With Brabham behind the wheel, the NPT-90 achieved five podium finishes, providing Nissan another Manufacturer\u2019s Championship. The #90-01 ran its final race on October 11th, 1992 at the 2 Hour Del Mar GTP race, where it finished in 2<sup>nd<\/sup>\u00a0place. In its 22-race career, the #90-01 captured three victories and fifteen podium finishes.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Nissan GTP platform\u00a0showed its superiority and reliability compared to its competitors. With the combination of high downforce, extraordinary power, reliability, and excellent handling dynamic, the NPT-90 was the perfect\u00a0package in the form of a <a href=\"https:\/\/sportscardigest.com\/rolex-monterey-motorsports-reunion-2019-information\/\">GTP race car<\/a>. The example up for auction is in very original condition in its 1992 race configuration. It has the most current version of the NPT-90 program specifications.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the 1980s and early 1990s, Nissan dominated IMSA racing with the NPT-90 as the ultimate model of the Japanese manufacturer\u2019s GTP cars. The combination of the twin turbo-charged delivery and the high downforce body design makes the Nissan NPT-90 one of the fastest and most powerful racing cars that were ever made. Chassis #90-01 is a great chance to own an iconic figure of motorsports history.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Exterior\u00a0of the 1990 Nissan NPT-90<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Since it evolved\u00a0every year, the NPT-90 has the latest body work that it had when it raced in 1992. It was equipped with updated aerodynamic capability, a sleek front clip, and higher downforce rear bodywork.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-17_1598883333-1-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593791\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-18_1598883333-1-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-593792\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1990-Nissan-NPT-90_Exterior_Stratas-Auctions-21_1598966872-1-750x500-1-293x195.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The #90-01 is finished in the historical red, blue, and white Nissan livery.
