Product Details
This page covers the Whiteline Front Strut Tower Brace for the 1987-1999 Nissan Sentra E, GXE, SE, XE (B12/B13/B14). The listing names the E, GXE, SE, and XE trims. Order it as part number KSB514. It goes on the front of the vehicle. You receive 1 strut brace.
Chassis stiffness is easy to underrate. A brace across the strut towers connects two points that would otherwise move on their own, which keeps the front suspension working as designed and gives the steering a more consistent, communicative feel.
Installation is rated moderate, with about half an hour of work listed. No alignment is needed afterward. To go with it on the Sentra, see 12mm Adjustable Front Camber Bolts, Front Strut Tower Brace Quick Release Kit, and Front Sway Bar Link.
Features
- Chassis stiffness: Helps keep alignment angles and spring rates consistent by cutting down flex.
- Finish: The polished alloy finish is a visual upgrade as well.
- Matched kit: Whiteline chose the bushings and geometry parts in this kit to suit the vehicle.
