280zx turbo Vin?

In a 280zx car is there a character in the vin that lets you see if the car is a turbo? here is a vin of one im looking at the ad doesnt say turbo or nothing, but I dont know, it has a turbo hood so im assuming it is. here is a pic also

vin JN1HZ04S8CX451258

ALL 82-83 280zx's had that "turbo hood." It doesn't matter if it's a turbo or not. In 81, Nissan intro'd the turbo hood.... it was so popular that they made it standard on ALL 82-83 ZX's.

That car has 82-83 non turbo rims too...

It isn't a turbo, otherwise the vin would be JN1CZ04S8CX451258 as opposed to JN1HZ04S8CX451258

No problem. I'll post the vin breakdown later when I can find it, unless someone else posts it first.

This Is What Is In The Beging Of The Haynes Manual.
If Your Vehicle Has None Of The Letters Listed Then You Do Not Have That Feature.

K = T-bar Roof
H = L28 Engine
L = Left Hand Drive
G = 2+2

Then It Goes S130

J = Grand Luxury Model
A = Automatic
F = 5 Speed Manual
T = Turbo Charger
V = California
U = 1979 W/o Catalytic Converter
Ud = W/ Catalytic Converter
N = Canada Model
B = Power Steering
C = Air Conditioner (manual Temp Control)
CI = Air Conditioner (auto Temp Control)
H = At The End Of The Vin = Us High Altitude Model (1982 Only)
