Nissan transmissions simply cant hold up to the torque that their amazing engines produce. Not too sure if any car maker has a superior built tranny.
There are enough tranny threads though on the 6th gen.

04-05 mainly. And to answer the first post, yes there are many different cars with awesome transmissions. But it seems like Nissan takes the cake with quickest in failures. Every car I have owned other than this car have made it at least 100k miles before any problems. I will have replaced this car's tranny 2 times by then. Next for me is 6mt or beefed up 5speed.
