The 1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo marks the debut of the legendary "Z31" chassis generation, famous for transitioning the Z-car lineup from an inline-six engine to Japan's first mass-produced V6 engine. Coinciding with the official transition of the brand name from Datsun to Nissan, early 1984 models frequently featured dual badging from both names.
