Hi,

My good friend has this tidy Japanese import JN1 3.0 litre Maxima.
I suspect it's a 4th gen vehicle, but can't be sure, as I am being sent all the model details by SMS, and I fear there are digits missing.
To add to my confusion, I got beaten and robbed last night at the supermarket, but I hope I'm making SOME sense at least.

Garbled transaxle are either: RE404B FN37, or RE4F0B FN37.

PROBLEM:

Only got first and second gear on the transmission. Can drop pan, and replace valve body, but unsure of which part to buy off e Bay.

Engine is VQ30(DE) 2988cc

As I say, it is a used Japanese import, and I can't be certain what generation it actually is.

I might post this on the Gen 4 and Gen 2 pages, cos this thing is a mystery to me.

Hope that's ok - don't want to waste anyone's time.

Cheers from NZ

Andy
