Sentra 5sp tranny in a 4th gen?

Okay, I've been searching forever through the All Motor section for an answer but it seems as though doing a 6sp swap is a more interesting subject

so heres the deal: I have a 96 max with a 5sp manual and a couple of weeks ago my clutch started slipping, BAD, and shortly after i developed a pretty bad tranny leak coming from where the bell housing meets the engine. Long story short, i would love to start fresh and rebuild the tranny but i simply dont have the time, so I've been trying to find used or rebuilt assemblies on the web with no such luck, for maximas that is
I did find however that some sentras have the same RS5F50A tranny, and my question is, would a sentra tranny simply bolt on to my max, no mods needed, or would I need to make some mods to make it work?

Any help is very much appreciated guys!

Have 1 working trans that hasn't been rebuilt, another with fresh rebuild all bearings and seals.
I've shipped to New York before and it was about $100.

how much are you wanting to sell each of them for? more interested in the rebuilt one but money is tight these days so we'll see, but either way I'm interested in buying at least one of them. also I'm in the St. Louis area so hopefully shipping wouldn't be too bad
