What shall I do or change on the 80K miles car, to keep it working
smoothly and to make it live long. I haven't done anything on a car,
with an exception of regular AT and oil changes, and changed belt &
front brakes 2 times and spark plugs 1 time. Any recommendations ?
Car, Sentra'01.

I'd change the coolant.

Well... not so much to keep it working, but you should change the brake
fluid every 2 years. It absorbs water from the air, and that means it
can boil under extreme circumstances. If that happens, you lose your
brakes.
I assume you are changing the oil and air filters? These things are on
the service schedule for a reason!

Yes. Filters too.
Now, is anything needs to be done about axles? Do CV boots need to be
changed?
Anything in regards to fuel system ? Pump ? Fuel filter ? Or it's not
necessary on Sentras ?
Thanks for a tip about breaks.
