Which cars have that transmission? And how much torque it can handle?

did you swap in the 5 speed? last I remember all 3.5 maximas that were manual came with a 6 speed.

I believe only the SE-R Altima got the 6 speed.

you will also need the 6 speed shifter assembly and cables to switch to the 6 speed...
