The Pulsar/Astra of that age actually used a Holden engine... The same as in the Camira infact. It was called the Family 2 i believe.
Holden and Nissan did a swapsy.... Holden got the RB30 for the vL commodore... Nissan got the Family 2 for the Pulsar.

Holden Apollo = the best holden ever made.
Toyota Lexcen = worst toyota ever made.

Yeah, thats a big list of the suckers. The 323 and Laser are the same chassis and driveline, but they go their separate ways in body and interior, they are the most different of the lot.
Friends 93 Nova has a 4AFC I think, I know its a 4A something, not a 4AGE though...
