Magnetec 10w-40 should be the best oil
Above the CV joint towards the back of the engine on the left hand side (as you look at the car).
It is on the pass side of the rear of the engine.
In a 1997 N15 Pulsar with the GA15DE engine, I use a 10w40 synthetic oil (Castrol Magnatec) recommended by the local store. To find the right oil you can go to: http://www.datateck.com.au/lube/castr_nz/default.asp Just enter info on your car and it will say what oil is recommended.

You can use any SAE certified engine oil in your Nissan. The engine oil should be a 10W-30 weight engine oil.
The Nissan TD 27 diesel engine has an engine oil capacity of nine gallons. Nissan recommends that the oil be changed every 12,000 miles.
The starter motor is located next to the oil filter, maybe the best way to get to it is from below
The Nissan Sunny engine oil capacity is dependent upon the year and type of engine. In most cases the engine oil capacity is 4.5 quarts.
i think its at the back of the engine block. In Australia in on the drivers side
I am just changing it now on mine and upon draining it it showed 3 litres on the pan. When i measured the oil on the dipstick prior to draining it , it showed 1/2 full So there you go.
Your engine oil capacitie is 4.0 liters
