N14 series (1991–1994)
Nissan Pulsar/Sunny (N14)
In 1990, the N14 model finally saw Nissan turn to the rounded look. Holden in Australia did not use a variant of this Pulsar, instead choosing to use a rebadged variant of the Toyota Corolla sold as the Holden Nova until the late 1990s when they reintroduced the Astra name for their variant of the Opel Astra. It continued to be offered in New Zealand as the Sentra. In Europe, the Sunny name continued, applied to three, four and five-door models, alongside the Sunny California station wagon from Japan (called either the Sunny Estate or Sunny Traveller). The Langley and Liberta Villa models were not offered. There was no N14 Pulsar offered in the US either; Instead, the US Pulsar evolved into what was known as the NX1600 with the GA16DE engine, the SR18DE or the NX2000 with the SR20DE engine and rear disc brakes. The NX cars are sport coupe shape of the same chassis, engines, body electronics and even dashboard as Pulsar and Sunny. 1994 was the last year for the N chassis in the US.
This generation was badged as the Nissan Sabre (hatch back) and Sentra(4-door saloon) in South Africa, and the Nissan Sunny in Europe. The Pulsar was Wheels magazine's Car of the Year for 1991, which it shared with the Honda NSX — the only time the award was shared by two different cars.
Pulsar GTI-R
The N14 series also saw the introduction of the Nissan Pulsar GTI-R (labelled Sunny GTI-R in Europe). This was a homologation variant produced to satisfy the necessary WRC rules at that time. It featured a turbocharged SR20DET engine producing 169 kW (230 hp JIS) of power, as well as the ATTESA all-wheel drive system.
The GTI-R, which was identified as an RNN14 model, was entered by Nissan into the World Rally Championship. However, it did not prove to be very competitive, and many believe it was hampered by a few technical problems. These included excessive weight over the front wheels which caused a deficiency in handling where the car could understeer excessively and the location of the turbocharger's intercooler unit atop the engine which caused inefficiency in the induction system. Many also theorised that the cars were running with a manufacturer of tires that were not up to scratch with the competition at that time. The GTI-R raced under the Nissan Motorsport Europe banner. It was more competitive in the hands of privateers, winning the Group N class of the World Championship in the hands of Grégoire de Mévius in 1992. It also proved popular in the European Rallycross Championships.

Mete's car is very clean.
The mod list are as follows:
Tanabe Catback Exhaust
O.Z. Rally Spec Wheels
The goal is 400 hp and suspension upgrades. For those that don't know the car has the ability to run with the best current manufactured cars on the road today.
