ok i no that you can get the dist brake assembly off the first gen se .... but can you use the same parts that you need from the se(1st gen) from any of the second gen altimas?

not sure, best thing would be to just to go to a junk yard, and find an SE with the disks in the back(first gen) and just get the whole rear axle. might run you about 200 or maybe a little more, probably the best way to do it, and jsut change the master brake cylinder, and brake lines.
