Because the cylinders are 1-2-3-4 on one side and 5-6-7-8 on the other, I would say you have bad wires. This is a known problem with these engines.

Rough Idle 2011 Nissan Altima

If you're experiencing a rough idle in your 2011 Nissan Altima, the first thing you should do is diagnose the issue. The Torque app can provide you with some diagnostic codes which can help you narrow down the problem. In your case, two current fault codes and two pending fault codes were recorded. The current fault codes point to a system that is running too lean on Bank 2 and misfiring in multiple cylinders. The pending codes indicate a system that is too lean on Bank 1 and a cylinder 2 misfire.
To start troubleshooting, you should begin by checking the spark plugs and ignition coils. Both of these components are integral to the proper functioning of the engine. If they are faulty, they can cause misfiring and rough idling. You should also inspect the mass air flow sensor, as a faulty one can throw off the air-fuel ratio of the engine.
Finally, if the problem still persists after inspecting the spark plugs, ignition coils, and mass air flow sensor, then you should consider consulting a professional mechanic for further diagnosis. They can provide a more accurate assessment of the issue and recommend the best course of action.

I have a 3 cylinder Nissan March 2011 misfiring at idle ,change plug coilpack and get the same result

3 cylinder engines do run rough at idle because there's no cylinder to offset the odd cylinder, but if you're sure it's a miss unplug one injector at a time. A good cylinder will make the engine die or run really rough while a bad cylinder won't make any difference.
