Diference between A33 and A33B?

What is the difference between Maxima A33 and A33B?
Is A33 Japanese version and A33B American? I own A33 and would like to find IACV for it but have some problems with parts number.
VIN is JN1CCUA33U0080854

Well cut the poster mcmaklin a little bit of slack guys ... he is very new to the site and lives in Poland where getting help is a real problem. He is having a problem with what seem to be his IACV and is trying to get the part from here (already gave him Dave B's contact information) and by the looks of this thread he is trying to understand the different parts listings that are out in the market, which can be confusing as there are parts that will only fit 00-01 and parts that only fit 02-03 and then some of them are universal to 00-03.

We were all new to understanding how things worked once upon a time, so cut a little bit of slack here.

Yeah I'm with Ghost on this too.

We all like to forget that we were green as grass once upon a time too. For a lot of us, that wasn't so long ago. There really is no such thing as a dumb question. The irritating part is when people are fully capable of finding the answers easily without starting a thread on it. I don't believe this is the case for the OP of this thread though, he needed genuine clarification.

And btw all our cars 00-03 are labeled A33B, check courtesy parts, and other parts websites, so whoever said A33 is 00-01 and A33B is 02-03 I beg to differ and I need proof

The term A33B came through almost a slang term on here years back. And now, it is generally accepted as everyone has pointed out.

Also, Courtesy does refer to all A33's as A33B's, but a lot of their PN's don't match with FAST....

Just sayin'.
