The Nissan N13 pulsars ('88-'91 from memory) come with the holden 1.6 or 1.8L motor, depending what level of model you get, such as GL, Sports, or 'Q'. This is the same motor as the LD Astra with the same body.

If you get the sports or Q model, it has an injected 1.8L, which is reliable as anything, and cheap as chips to get parts for the motor, but the LSD gearbox is a bit pricey if you have to replace or repair it.

Unfortunately, I have to say I'd chose an N13 pulsar Q over an early 90's 4AF carby motor in a corolla, unless you plan to convert it to injected 4AG or the like (or just find an SX, for a stupid price). The Q is good value and fairly easy to find at a good price, and has A/C, p/steer & central locking (& nice seats & interior) all as standard fitment.
