couple tranny questions
when i put my 5 spd in myc ar, do i need to change Tranny control unit???, i suppose you have to, but if you dont need to, then i wont....another thing, is a 1992 auto a better tranny or what? and when i put my 5 spd in, should i change filter, and where is it located???

If you go from auto to 5 speed, the control unit is not used,so just leave it alone..
The auto trans is the same in all 3rd gens i think[not sure though]
There is no filter in a manual trans to change.....

The VE got a different (stronger) auto tranny than the VG did.
the VG had an RE4F02A (R=? E = Electric 4= speeds F = FWD 02= power capacity A= open differential)
The VE got an RE4F04V (R=? E = Electric 4= speeds F = FWD 04= power capacity V= Viscous Limited Slip Differential)
the VG had an RE4F02A (R=? E = Electric 4= speeds F = FWD 02= power capacity A= open differential)
The VE got an RE4F04V (R=? E = Electric 4= speeds F = FWD 04= power capacity V= Viscous Limited Slip Differential)

Thank you for the tranny schooling brian...
I thought the autos were the same except for the vlsd...

just wondering, what year did the 5-sp come out of? know how many miles are on it vs. the auto you had?

If it came out of a 93 se then it did not have a timing belt.....and i would not hardly believe that a chain broke at 80,000 miles..

ohh crap thats right.......they have chains...hmmmmm so maybe he just had an easy problem that could be fixed......or maybe he is just a er or maybe he just dont know jack about maximas.all i know is that i got it really cheap....hopefully no problems..i dont want to install it then have to take it back out to rebuild it...darn it i forgot aobut the timing belt again.

You already got your answer, no need to touch the TCU, just let it be. Or, you could rip out the F21 harness (the harness that connects the ECU & TCU with the engine and tranny) and install the F20 harness from the manual donor car. That way you'll have the electronics working immediatly instead of shorting a lot of cables as seen here (at the bottom of the page):

And in this case you can take out the TCU as well.

kinda of hard to believe that the tranny came out an SE that the idiot that sold it to u told u that it broke the timing belt. what a dumbass. did u also get the axles and hubs with the tranny? cuz $400 seems a bit steep for just the tranny and the clutch that u got alone. i got my 5-spd. tranny out of a '91 SE can't remember the mileage on it back in Aug. of 04 for only $115 and it still works like a charm though i am now on the hunt for a VE 5-spd. tranny. i need that VLSD option in my car. good luck on the swap.
