The 4 speed auto will, but the 5.5 5 speed auto wont.

You mean 6th gen 5 speed auto. 5th gens never came with 5 speeds, the 4 speed auto was the sole choice until 2004. And IIRC, it's the same 4 speed auto from 2000-2003 and even before that so should work.

the answer is no, it wont work, the tranny lines up but the valve body harness will not pug up, you will need a 95-99 tranny, 00-01 will not work

The I35 came with a 5 speed auto, so I figured the 5.5 Max came with it. Whoops. Haha.

The 5.5 gen Maxima was produced from 2002 to 03.
The I35 was produced from 02 to 04.

Something tells me that the 04 I35 was the only year that had the 5-speed auto. Kinda makes sense. Last hurrah, never had the Maxima's 6-speed manual etc.

I apparently got my cars mixed up, as they were all 4 speeds. My mistake. Haha.

The A33 version of the Maxima or Infiniti I35 never came with the 5-speed automatic.
