The Xterra uses a recirculating ball type steering setup while I believe the Tacoma uses a rack and pinion setup. The recirculating ball system is not quite as responsive.
In this scenario the idler arm brace will not help you. If you wheel your Xterra, than you may want to consider one since it will strengthen the idler arm, a notoriously weak part of the nissan steering system.
