-JVC CD Receiver
-Pioneer Premier Speakers all the way around
-Viper Keyless Entry system
-Performance is next when i get some more money
I consider this list to be serious, way more serious than anything under 100,000 should have had. Now granted, I love The Alt and I do think I've had more than my fair share of problems, but still, this isn't saying much for Nissan.
What I've purchased and had to fix:
New Starter
New Flexplate
New Alternator
What still needs to be fixed:
PS Lines
PS Pump (Pretty much the whole PS System is f*cked.)
Thermostat
A/C and Heating System (God knows whats wrong with it.)
Not to mention all the little shit I've had to fix, but no worth going into, nothing major, just stupid little shit that I shouldn't of had to deal with.
But she definitely looks new though! lol

'93 auto (build date of fall '92!)...253k, no major issues except one intake manifold gasket replacement a few years back. Never touched AC, tranny, etc....just swapped engine for a 30k mile unit, then found it was the radiator clogged and not a warped head/gasket issue like I thought.
only 83k - mostly a "in city" commuter.
Only item todate was a bad front wheel bearing.
everything else is very good.
plan on running the car until it finally gives up ( and with some of you at 200k+ it might be a while until that happens : )
