Dude you can run it fine with the stock amp and speakers.

Did you locate an Alpine dealer near you?

 

What wiring harness did you get? If you did not purchase one specifically for adapting non-Bose head units to the existing stereo wiring in the Maxima, then that is a definite problem. They typically cost between $49-59 USD. Visit Crutchfield and/or SoundDomain for further details.
