Check to see if the headlights work! (Not high beams) if not replace the ipdm module under the hood, these cars are very famous for this issue

This already sounds all kinds of bad.
Lets start with spark. Did you verify it can make 30kv at all plugs while cranking? f you havent...start there. Do you have any codes in any modules? Engine, theft, trans, body?
Do you have vacuum cranking, do you have MAF reading cranking? do we know if its mechanically still in time? Did you do a cranking compression test? If you have spark, and you remove the fuel pump relay...does it start when it isnt flooding? What is your system and reference voltage...what is cranking vacuum? And what tests did you run that inspired changing all that stuff? Check the c ranking rpm in Generic mode just rpm onscreen, some OEM software doesnt update well during cranking, with one pid selected, solus should update better than 10x a sec, If you still have no signal...you need to measure the crank sensor wires or verify the crank sensor ring is even turning,

My 03 Nissan Altima wont get over 2500 rpms

first check your fuel system, replace fuel filter, also check your fuel pressure regulator on your fuel rail it may be leaking internally if ok check your fuel pump operation. if your fuel system is ok then check for a restricted catalytic converter its a common fault I encounter with them. if that to checks out ok then have the ecm scanned by a shop or the dealer could be a faulty engine speed sensor or crank or cam sensor

Nissan Almera wont start with code P0345

Code 345 means the cam sensor on bank two is not sending the correct signal to the engine computer. So no spark.
If you have replaced the sensor, the problem could be the cam or the wiring from the sensor to the computer.

No start

It sounds like you have possibly two problems for your concern. One... the crank and cam sensor could cause this. Two... a faulty fuel pump could cause this.

Nissan experienced a huge problem from the supplier of the crank and cam sensors. The supplier has upgraded the sensors from plastic to metal for improvement. Using a scan tool you can monitor the crank sensor RPM and the cam sensor RPM. If they are zero when spinning the engine over then you will need to replace them.

Check the fuel pressure and if it is not ok then make sure the proper power is sent to the fuel pump. The fuel pump is located through an access hole under the rear seat. Remove the cover and disconnect the connector check the terminal for power. It will be the one to the right of the 5 pin gray connector black with yellow tracer wire. You should have battery voltage with the key on. The voltage will only be triggered for 1 to 2 seconds. If that is ok the fuel pump is faulty... replace it.

My 2002 Nissan Maxima hesitates to start

if vehicle hesitates to start do you mean long cranking time (posible fuel pump) or no crank at all then suddenly starts then it is possible starter solenoid (notorious) - complete starter assembly needs replacement.
