    Hmmm just noticing your first post..... Why are you using 5th gear at sub 50mph?
    Have you tried not labouring the engine? You might find the problem isn't as bad as it seems.....

    Is it ok in other gears or does it feel sluggish all the time? Can you rev it when standing still and does it rev ok up to 4/5000?

    Its a tricky one but the more info you give to a garage/mechanic the quicker they can spot it. From your description it could be anything.

    Have you had it serviced as previous posts asked?

    Take it to a local nissan independent specialist. They wont need to send u off to an auto electrician. My experience of the latter has been terrible in fault finding.

    someone suggested maf about 6 months ago?
    i would agree and it was probably your original problem anyway as they dont throw a code
    your garage selling you parts sounds like the kind of place where they normally have all the boys toys but are somewhat lacking in basic sense
