go to nissan and check the bolt pattern of where the trannies mate to the motor.

Just go to parts and talk with them, SOME nissan dealerships have willing people to help.

Your biggest problem may be that the Nissan 6-speed transmission is cable shift, while the 5-speed is not.

EXACTLY. And so, the question "can it be done?" results in "yes, it can, but it'll be SO EXPENSIVE that you'd be better off just getting a 6speed Maxima".
