Differences between unleaded models over the leaded models included a water-cooled turbocharger (high mount manifold compared to low mount), color-coded window frames, mirrors and grille and the interior was slightly upgraded. A Full body kit was also optional from Nissan.
Nissan also sold a variant to the Pulsar ET in 1983/84 called the Pulsar EXA. Shaped as a 2 door sedan the EXA had some appealing looks when it was released all those years ago and weighed 36kg lighter. Using the same drive train, there were a few differences. Unlike the ET which sported 4 wheel discs, the EXA used drum brakes on the rear, however the EXA used far better Ventilated Front discs and bigger calipers.
