I purchased a 2002 Nissan Quest alternator for my 2002 Xterra. It bolts right up. 120 amps instead of 80 amps.

I'm a little biased towards the Z32- Winter mode Summer wheels I love how it drives, feels and looks. ~80k miles since 2003 I've replaced the alternator a couple times, high pressure power steering hose, a couple injectors, the clutch twice and many tires.

It's a damn tough pump. It's been about a year of just topping off now and then with a whiny pump and the leaky hose. Has yet to fail despite not bleeding the system and about half the time being run without fluid.
When I stuck the key in the ignition, the temp needle pegged the far end of the hot zone. AAA towed it to the Nissan dealer and they put a thermostat it in for $50 or something and it worked perfectly after that.
Put one in my Frontier last winter, and had more consistent starts. Cost half of Nissan dealership with higer CCA.
Saturday morning, we pull up to the house outside of Palmdale to this scene - a beat ass Chevy Celebrity trying to jump start an even more thrashed Nissan Stanza. The battery was fully charged, but it wouldn't start because it was still in 'drive.' After almost burning the thing down with improperly attached jumper cables, we were ready for a test drive. It ran... kinda. It was firing on 3...sometimes 4 cylinders, and the oil was overfilled by about 2 quarts.
He should have known that that fluid is poor quality. I looked up the vehicles they claim it works in. That is a lot of vehicles with many different styles of CVT transmissions.
Nissan still does it. I found it distracting when I borrowed by Father's '14 Altima
Year two, 60k miles, I get a rattle. Annoying at first but soon the radio can't even drown it out. Drive performance gets "pretty bad" - the car has no get-up and go. Diagnosis: two cylinders operating at low performance, noise loudest at timing chain, needs a new engine. The tech noticed I'm over the estimated 3,750 miles for oil change, so probably the cause is "sludge" in the engine due to MY poor maintenance. Estimated costs of service: $8,655.83. I have discovered tons of consumer reviews - particularly about the 2011 Juke - indicating the same problem I'm having but in particular, the timing chain was defective and their engines had to be replaced. Many articles were hoping for a recall of the timing chain soon. The service guys says "well, yes, all of this has to do with the timing chain but really the cause is sludge."
