    check your MAF,knock sensor, timing, fuel injectors, fuel filter, nissans have a lot of electrical stuff, fastest way to figure out whats wrong is Check your ECU for codes.. or you can also reset the ECU, just go to the ECU, there should be a little knob thingy you can turn with a flat head screw driver, as soon as you turn it all the way around your car check engline light should blink.. if it blinks 5 long ones and 5 short ones, that means everything is fine, if any other codes like 3 long and 4 short is 34 which is your knock sensor i think, but im just using it as an example.

    To reset, turn your key on, but don't turn on your car, and then turn the ECU knob to show you the codes, if it is 55 it's fine, if it gives you any other code, after you turn the knob, turn it back so no codes are showing, take out your key, put your key back in, and repeat the steps and it should reset your ECU back to 55 (which is no problems), turn on your car for a couple a mins so the ECU can recheck the codes, if 55 shows up then you shoudl be good, if any others keep showing up then you should get them replaced.

    yeah np, if your MAF is wrong when you troubleshoot ur ECU it'll give ya the 12 CODE i think thats for the MAF if not i don't think you should mess with your MAF, either that or if you really wanna check if its your MAF like the other guys posted to see if it works, all you have to do is get a volt meter turn on the car and check if there is voltage going through your MAF, as you rev the motor higher, the voltage should rise if not than your MAF is messed up.
