Does anyone know what the screw/bolt is that used to keep the rotor in place. Finally got around to changing the rotors and brakes and it seems like I'm missing both in the rear. I can't seem to find the part on Nissan's website. Thanks

The rotor is clamped between the hub and the wheel.
I don't recall any bolt "used to keep the rotor in place".
Not sure what you mean.

I'm not positive. but I think it has something to do with the e brake adjustment.

There is an unthreaded hole that should have a black rubber plug in it. That is for getting to the e-brake adjuster.
Also, there are two 8mm threaded holes in the rotor to help remove a stuck rotor, but they shouldn't have anything in them.

@KMiller & @ezb57e Thanks for the reply! Seems like I'm just missing the black rubber plug for the rotor. I went ahead and changed the rotors and brakes with some Stillen crossed drilled rotors.
