it was an option for all 3rd gens

check the "idiot lights" on your dash and if you have one for ABS, then your car probably has ABS

for VEs (your engine 92-94SE), the coolant reservoir will be in front of the battery if you have ABS; otherwise it will be on the pass side near the washer fluid
I think that's same for VGs, but not sure

check out the ABS computer in the trunk and see what code it flashes

look at www.bignissans.org.uk in the J30 section under articles "dont go braking my heart" or something like that

I had a bunch of problems with wheel sensors, but I've replaced a couple and everything seems to be working now (they were about $15 each from the junkyard)

You're right about the ABS on VG, my Maxima's engine.
