I'm only a third of the way there yet, but most of the necessary checks/adjustments/etc are listed in the owner's manual. You need to change the engine coolant and transmission fluid (esp. for an automatic), and oil if its needed. I think everything else listed is just items to inspect like belts, hoses, brakes, fluid levels, drive system, and suspension. A good mechanic can probably do all this for you -- I bet going to a Nissan dealer is going to cost you some $$, so expect to pay.

get a spark plug socket... 16mm I think and get a 6" or 10" extension. Just hook those up to a ratchet and there you go. To get to the plugs, unplug the ignition coils and pull them out. The rear is a little tougher since they are harder to reach.... don't forget the anti sieze and don't overtighten...
