I think it's the lifters. I've heard the same noise in many (all I guess) other 4-gen maximas. Anyone have an idea what it actually is? Anything to worry about and any way to fix it?

I have it too
The mechanic at Mossy Nissan here in Houston told me it's normal when I tried to explain it. (must be same prob as my air is always on). Mine is very faint. I really only hear it in my parking garage. He said that in his 12 years, he has tried several things to remedy the situation with no real success...

Do what I am doing. Cover it up with loud air intake and exhaust notes. :LAUGH:
