Cowboy,
The 83-84 Maxima trans is the same trans as the 82-83 280ZX and it has the O/D. The only problem is this trans is 1 inch longer than the 280ZX auto trans. 32 inches vs. 31 inches. Also the trans. mount is different too. The drive shaft input is the same as the turbo drive shaft. I am in the middle of putting this trans into my project car now. The trans. mount is pretty easy to fabricate.

I have a write up from someone else on this but on hard copy. Email me and we can talk some more if you are interested.
