if you mean the seal at the end of the tranny, where the driveshaft slides in, yes they are the same.

Yep, they are I, just changed mine yesterday. I think the seal is about $12 from nissan.

Yes the seal where the tranny meets the drive shaft.(is that the main seal?) Was it very difficult to change? i hope not. i havnt had a chance to get under the car and look.

It is very easy to replace.

-Remove the 4 bolts where the driveshaft meets the differential
-Slide the driveshaft out of the transmission
-Pull the old seal using a seal puller or suitable tool
-Tap the new seal in (I believe you should lubricate the inside of the seal w/ silicone lube, not sure about that one)
-Install driveshaft in reverse order.
