Detailed Description

Remy 17734 is a remanufactured starter intended for vehicles originally equipped with a Hitachi-style unit. It is specified for 12-volt systems and uses a permanent magnet gear reduction layout, which is common in compact starter assemblies where controlled cranking performance and OE-style fit are important. The closed nose design and 11-pinon tooth count help maintain the correct engagement profile for the listed Nissan Maxima and INFINITI I30 and I35 applications. If you are replacing a worn starter on a 2000-2003 Nissan Maxima or a 2000-2004 INFINITI sedan in the listed fitment, this unit provides the correct configuration for those vehicles.

This part cross-references Hitachi-style applications such as M0T87181 and S114-801D for the same application.

What This Starter Helps Address

• Slow or weak engine cranking
• No-crank condition caused by starter wear
• Intermittent starting due to internal starter failure
• Grinding or poor pinion engagement during start-up
• Replacement needs for a failed OE-style Hitachi starter

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s original starter configuration before installation, including voltage, rotation direction, nose style, and pinion tooth count. Confirm fitment for your exact Nissan Maxima, INFINITI I30, or INFINITI I35 year before ordering, and compare the removed unit to part number 17734 when possible. Clean battery terminals and inspect cables, grounds, and charging-system condition during replacement to help avoid repeat starting issues.
