Two 5-spd Transmission Questions
I have a 1995 Maxima SE with a tranny that is shot.
1) Is there any company that makes an entirely beefed up 5-spd transmission for the Maxima? (one that will even take the ACT stage 1 clutch and not rip gears apart)
2) My 95 SE is from the US (no LSD). I am in Canada however, and have an opportunity to get a VLSD 5-spd tranny. Can I just swap it out like that or are there any additional things that I need to do?
Thanks.

Outside of getting the VLSD tranny, driver side axle and passenger side axle and bolting it all up, is there anything else that I need to get or is there anything else that the tranny shop should know?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Just check the tranny over while it's out. It'll only take a few minutes to open it up and look at everything. Check the clearances, and look for wear. (make sure they use the clearances from Nissan)
