4th gen parts on 5 gen cars?

Hi all, hope all is doing well, I was wondering since both the 4th gen and the 00-01 5gen have the same engine, is it possible that most 4th gen parts will fit on 5th generation Maxima specially the 00 and 01 models?

what kind of parts are you reffering to?

there are alot of parts that can be swapped over from the 4th gen to the 5th gen and some to 5.5 gens.

any particular part in mind?

thanks for replying, i was just refering to aftermarket parts in general like exhuast systems, air intake, manifold, turbos etc,

i just had to ask becuase the engines are exactly the same so i figured parts should fit without any major issues

well appearently you are talking about a DE-K... well the axles are the same... transmission is the same, and with interchangeable tranny, makes clutch n flywheel interchangeable
