HUD - same as above...replacement windshields are also very $$
sonar suspension - very very $$$ to replace worn struts. most swap in non sonar units.
i like the 3rd gen like the next guy but there was a reason those items were scrapped from the 4th gen and up...besides the point that the 4th gens were built when nissan were about to go under.

Digi dash - My car has had it for over 180k miles, and I get none of the above.
HUD - Same thing
Sonar Suspension - THAT is ridiculously expensive. Stealership wanted something like $600 PER strut. Thats when my car got KYB's in the front. I want Konis now though.

there are companies that address these issues..here's one of them...
http://www.mrwhizard.com/services2.cfm
1989-93 Maxima Digital Dash - Symptoms: Dark, may come on when warm and/or speedo and odometer not working. HUD not working OR Temp and Fuel gauge works but speedo/odometer/tach gauges are dark. If speedo display is working, it may show speed up to 40 mph when the vehicle is standing still. Repair Cost $189
no way shape or form i'm endorsing the company..it's only for reference.

the rest of the car was cheapened to save cost compared to the 3rd gen.
somehow they pulled through it and then renault signed up.
