What’s special about this listing

1998 Nissan Pulsar Serie VZ-R – Neo VVL | Hot Hatch | 5-Speed Manual
Offered here is a 1998 Nissan Pulsar Serie VZ-R, a true JDM hot hatch powered by the legendary SR16VE Neo VVL engine – Nissan’s version of VTEC. This clean 3-door hatchback was legally imported in 2023 and now carries a Colorado title. With 142,xxx km (approx. 88k miles), it has been well maintained and recently refreshed with extensive upgrades in 2024.

Dyno-tested at 158whp on OEM ECU and pump gas, this VZ-R delivers sharp throttle response, high-revving excitement, and all the character that makes Nissan’s Neo VVL lineup so desirable.

This VZ-R Neo VVL is a rare opportunity to own a lightweight, high-revving, manual JDM hatchback with collectible Nismo LMGT4 wheels, tasteful performance upgrades, and extensive documented maintenance. Street-ready, emissions-compliant in Colorado — it’s turn-key and ready to drive.
