what are the exact differances between an xe-gle and an sel? i know the wheels, 2.0, 4 wheel disk, cf reflector, sun roof, side skirts anything else? i want to know EVERY difference cosmetic and tech
in about 6 months or so im going to buy a new car, i am dead set on a sentra se stick (i love the 4 doors and dont think i could function with a 200sx lol) but i love the se-l look so i figure when i get my hands on an se i could just put the reflector, lights, wheels (just the se-r wheels i have now but painted) a sunroof, the side skirts are differant right? anything im missing?

I figure with cars that are a little old it would be cheaper to get a se-l then put the things on yourself, and less of a hassle then trying to find all the parts get them put on and painted.
but as always if your up for the work then hit it up. Another thing missing, the clear rear corners.

the clear rear corners are the tail. i thought i had them listed.......hmm
i would just buy an se-l, but they really are very hard to find. and the se is alittle more abundant

Well the SE-L Was only in 99, the 98 was just a SE. So I am assuming that you want a 98 or 99 sentra se with the front end and wheels of a 99... As far as I know the 98 SE and the 99 SE-L are mechanically the same. As far as the differences between the rest of the Sentra family from 95-99 there are big differences, such as the 2.0 and the 4 wheel discs, and suspension. By the way in 98 a sunroof was optional for the SE, as was anti-lock brakes. (I have neither) Keeping the weight away from the top of the car is never a bad thing, and I am not one for ABS. What it comes down to is that the Se & SE-L are 4 door SE-HR (No limited slip though like the early 200sx SE-R)

thats true about the sun roof iv never had one so i wouldnt miss it (your post is the one i have been waiting for everything i needed to know) and i hate abs so thats not a problem. i guess ill just settle for an se (hopefully ill find one) and get some minor se-l stuff i.e. reflector, tails, have se-r wheels (not bronze but they will do) and i sure do love my 99 front bumper but the 98 is different

I think that you will find that a good powdercoating place will give you a 99 match for wheel color for about 60 dollars a wheel ( that includes sand blasting them first). And a 98 SE is never settling!!! I like the Maxima look! But more than anything else I like the look I get from Integra LS owners, as I say goodbye.

95-97's have the line grille
98's Have the honeycomb grille
99's have the solid grille and crystal headlights with a different shape.
-edit- nevermind, I was doing a year comparrison. Disregard my post.

well i have a place to blast mine myself (self servise garage) and i was planing on painting them a high gloss black or maybe a mat bronze color with a sanded lip (for a brushed alum look) if i polished it i would need to clean it all the time. but i will look into the powder coating when i get the car. i really want to do things right next time i get a car. like p/c wheels, a full component system that looks nearly stock, im going to go super duper clean, the dyson man will die out of sheer glee
if it dosent look stock or look like the factory wanted it there then its not coming with in 100 feet of the car

I am supporting my wife wile she is finishing her masters, so monEy is a little tight for my project, but I have always had a plan for altering a car...
Suspension(all inclusive)-->Brakes(NX2000 Brakes will do just fine\with braided brake lines)-->Transmission--> Engine(Turbo)-->and then finally cosmetic... I figure I have about 2yrs before I am all done. I want about 220-240 wheel hp

nice yea man thin stuff is expencive! (if you do it the right way) lol not including rutine matinence. but i figure i will save more and be happier if i start modding with a better base. i.e. se/se-l instead of a gxe-le 1.6 auto

Starting one up is the way to go, also if you start with the 2.0 you can laugh allot more while you are waiting to complete the mods. I love 4th gear.
