How can you tell the difference between a turbo and non 300zx ENGINE from VIN number?

To determine if a 300ZX engine is turbocharged or non-turbocharged based on the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), you need to identify the tenth character in the sequence. Here's how to differentiate:

Turbocharged (TT) 300ZX:

- Tenth VIN character: "J"

Non-Turbocharged (Z32) 300ZX:

- Tenth VIN character: "H"

For example, if the tenth character in the VIN is "J," the 300ZX engine is turbocharged, while if it's "H," the engine is non-turbocharged.
