SOURCE: Can A 2002 nissan maxima transmission work in a 2000 nissan maxima?

it will work providing all the plug and pipe connections are the same ,the engines are the same except for the larger one has a greater bore and stroke but the block is the same so the box will line up .not sure about the plugs and pipes though have a good look first before you start

Just replaced valve covers on Nissan Maxima 2002 due to misfire. Now it smokes and burns oil every start? What's should I do .

If is is only smoking when you first start it up. Most likely the valve guide seals, oil is leaking into the cylinders and smoking when you start it up.

Need to set the timing on a 1990 maxima

im not sure about your car but some cars are interference engines,meaning if the timing belt breaks the valves will hit the pistons and it will bend the valves and the car will not run again just by putting a new belt on it,,hopefully thats not the case but alot of import cars are interference engines,,good luck

Broken timing belt on 1993 Nissan Maxima

this is an interference motor, if the timing belt snapped/broke while running. Its possible that you may have internal engine damage(worst case). I suggest having a mechanic check it out before performing the belt replacement. Hopefully this helps
