When lowering a Sentra the biggest concern is loosing wheel travel. B15 Sentra's have very little wheel travel in the rear in stock form, put on a set of springs that lower the car 1.5" in the rear and you'll probably be riding on your bump stops.

The company that best addresses the wheel travel issue is Motivational with their coilovers. They use stock strut housings and install Koni inserts to creat a shorten strut. That combined with their rear upper mounts should give you plenty of rear suspension travel. Unfortunatly at around $1400 the Motivational coilovers are not in everyones budget.

Have you considered the spring and damper combination from Nismo. The drop is small (1" rear and .6" front), and the dampers are designed for those specific springs. Plus the struts have been shortened to gain back some of the wheel travel lost with the drop.
