The 3.0 L (2960 cc) VG30ET was available in early production with a single Garrett T3 turbocharger and a 7.8:1 compression ratio. The USDM version produced 200 hp and 227 ft.lbf. In 1988 it changed to a single Garrett T25 turbocharger and an 8.3:1 compression ratio to reduce turbo lag, and was bumped to 205 hp and 227 ft.lbf. No VG30ET was ever factory equipped with an intercooler as they featured low boost pressure for fast response.

It was used in the following vehicles:

* 1984–1989 Nissan 300ZX Turbo
* 1984–1986 Nissan Fairlady Z
* Nissan Leopard
* Nissan Gloria/Nissan Cedric

try to find an old mid-80's 280zx turbo. IIRC that thing was pretty fun. My dad had an old 2+2 that only got to drive a handful of times.
