For OEM parts you might try:

partsfornissans.com
nissanpartswarehouse.com
mynissanparts.com
nissanpartswholesale.com
Nissan-Auto-Parts-Dealer.com
everythingnissan.com
nissanparts.cc
1stnissanparts.com
courtesyparts.com

They usually come out to the about the same price including shipping.

Many swear by Dave B. (number available in the stickies I think) but I found him usually higher than other online sites.

For non-OEM parts you should check out amazon, advanceautoparts (only if using a coupon) or rockauto

Added other sites, thanks to fellow Maxima owners to keep a list in one place.

its usually referred to as valve cover gasket set, but descriptions usually state what is included in the set(ie. grommets, spark plug tube seals). I just ordered a set off rockauto.com and it was a complete set for about 40 bucks

Why not just go to rockatuo and search YOUR car, Jesus people, are we really that lazy?

Or, in the case if some of us, use the existing thread for ordering A34 VC's.
