Replaced;
Radiator
struts/shocks
pass side halfshaft
1 wheel bearing
valve cover gaskets
B1S1 O2 sensor
brakes, fluids, etc maintenance.
Had an 01 Maxima SE with the VQ30 motor. Loved that car, other then the rusting it was reliable, cheap and [censored] roomy. The rear leg room space was similar to the lincoln town cars! It drove exceptionally well in the winter (which was its primary use).
Nothing but praise on that car, if Nissan can get back to making motors like that one with better corrosion resistance, i think it can compete well with Honda/Toyota.
