R34 Shifter in 2k2/2k3 6spd
This might be crazy, but maybe worth exploring... rather than waiting for someone to fabricate a STS for the 6spd, might it be worth exploring using the shifter from the R34 6spd?
Forgive me if this is completely obsurd, I really don't know much about what's involved in a STS setup.

Welcome to Nissan!I seem to remember someone saying our shifter is new for the Max, which would rule out it's use on the R34.
We do have the same shift **** as the R34 though! Not that that means anything...

Somebody has already used the **** from one. The shifter linkage itself will be completely different from the R34 to the Maxima, so I don't see how you could use it (Cable Shift FWD, Direct Linkage (im assuming) AWD). Someone on altimas.net made a short throw, maybe you could try searching or asking over there.

The short throw from the Altima will not fit. Different linkage. The Z is a possible fit. I am waiting to find out on that one. Personally I would prefer to put the Z shifter in, but not sure it will work.
I heard that our Tranny is the same from the R-34 (in design), but I am sure the linkages will not dirrectly fit. Then again, who has actually tried.
