Book Excerpt: 1982-1994 Nissan Sentra Repair Manual INTRODUCTION

Nissan Sentra models are available in hatchback, two- and four-door sedan and station wagon body styles. The transversely mounted inline four-cylinder engines used in these models are equipped with either a carburetor or electronic fuel injection. The engine drives the front wheels through either a four- or five-speed manual or a three- or four-speed automatic transaxle via independent driveaxles. Independent suspension, featuring coil spring/strut damper units, is used on the front wheels, while independent suspension using shock absorbers and coil springs or coil spring/strut damper is used at the rear. The rack and pinion steering unit is mounted behind the engine with power-assist available as an option. The brakes are disc at the front and drums or disc at the rear, with power assist standard. An Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) became available on later models.
