95max bought new in 95 still original Spark plugs
I bought a 95 Maxima w/155K miles that had been sitting for quite a while. I
have been getting it shape (1/2 shafts, spark plugs, oil change, brakes and
rotors, new #4 injector and temp sensor and bank 2 #1 O2 sensor). ... I still
have a slightly rough idle and minor missing but no chk eng light

I would change the following on the car:
PLUGS,FUELFILTER,AIRFILTER,BRAKE FLUID,PCV VALVE.
BRAKES (If they are needed) HOSES(cracked or caked on or leaking)
SHOCKS(If they are bad and are leaking)
STRUT MOUNTS (if there making noise)
AXLE (If the CV boot Is torn)
BALLJOINTS (If there leaking grease or they are rusted)
ROTORS (If there rusted or there under specific reg)

and for your viewing pleasure a plain old 95 max GXE with 65K on it.
walmart wheel covers and all. btw 20K of those miles are in the last 3 years.
before that I had almost no commute at all.
That is a super clean and low mileage 95. Great job keeping it that way. As suggested above, I would definitely do a 60k service on it (plugs, PCV, air filter, fuel filter, belts, etc.) Depending on what other maintenance you have done I would check out all the fluids, etc. That's just me.
Maybe you should pull the codes and see if you have P0325 Knock Sensor code. That MAY be a contributing factor to your fuel mileage which doesn't trigger the check engine light. Good luck with the car and again, props for keeping it really clean!

Lol! What! I don't even have hood struts anymore I cut those off lol!
Your can see reflections in your bumper. I can't in mine lol!
Nice job keeping it so clean, I want to see underbelly shots.
Where are you from?
I think buy some stock SE rims and clear corners and give her a present.
