There is no such thing as an "SE" with 4 wheel disks. The only B13s with
rear disks were the SE-R & NX2000 (both available with & w.o. ABS) and the
Sentra GXE *IF* it had ABS. All other Sentras and the NX1600 (blech!) had
rear drums.
The "SE" is a big point of confusion caused by the Nissan Factory Service
Manual. It uses model nomenclature different from USA cars, but similar
enough to be confusing. In it, a "coupe" is an NX body *only* (not a 2dr
Sentra.) A "sedan" is a 2 or 4 door Sentra. Thus, an "SE Coupe" is an
NX2000 *only*. An "SE-R" is never mentioned -- it's a "2 door sedan with
SR20DE engine".
Apparently, many of the aftermarket parts companies got their hands on the
FSM and thought "SE" meant a Sentra SE or SE-R. Wrong. The MC you have
might really be an NX2k one. Hard tellin'.
