Bought an X

Hey All,
So yesterday my check engine light came on. I took it to Advanced Auto Parts to have the codes checked, and it looks like I there are two codes: The knock sensor, and misfire on cylinder #3.
So I have a couple questions...
1. Does the knock sensor have any impact on the misfire? (I dont think so, but I thought I should check..)
2. Should I bother with trying to fix the knock sensor code?
3. My X is a 2004, with only 83k on it. Do you think I should just replace plug and wire #3 or all of them? (or all but #6?)
4. Can someone point me in the right direction for the best plugs and wires to get? Should I just get the ones from Nissan dealer?
5. Any other tips/trick I should know about to make this easier? I'm hoping to fix this myself tonight and not be without a vehicle tomorrow
I'm sure I'll have more questions as I think of them...I haven't changed plugs/wires before...so bear with me
Thanks!
Shyam
