Who makes a front strut tower brace for the NX?Why won't SE-R units fit I thought that was a critical dimension and it would be the same between the two?Just asking because I see them on e-bay all the time but they say it won't fit the NX?

Who said they wouldn't fit?
Just order one from the same year SE-R, and bolt it in.

A company on e-bay item 599801691, I thought it would fit the strut towers are in the same place?It doesn't look that solid but I think it would help a little?What do you think?

If it doesn't look "solid", don't waste your money on it. Because chances are that it'll look worse in person!

That is probally because it is made for a SE-R w/o ABS. When Grimmer Phillips made their strut tower bars they made two kinds. One with a hump for ABS one w/o. BTW, If someone is looking to buy a Grimmer Phillips non ABS bar I know of one for sale. Very old piece but very very rare!

my stillen brace i bought for my 200SX SE-R works on my 93 NX, i think all SE-R STB's are interchangeable, except maybe the G20..

Does it make a difference though whether you get an abs or non abs specific front strut tower bar for the nx???

why would it make a difference? what does ABS have to do with the configuration of the front suspension on the B14/NX? i think it would work either way..

On Certain bars it would have to sit higher on the right side tower wall. ABS pump sits kinda high on r/s compared to l/s.
