maybe your alternators bad, you said when you give it gas all the lights start turning on, meaning when you get more rpms your alternators generating more volts. Idk thats just a guess

The only place that sells the 75A fusible link is Nissan.

Every other fuse in the car can be bought from your local auto parts store.

Then you have a short.

Time to bust out the multimeter and start hunting down that short.

You already know which devices will trigger the condition, so start looking around those circuits and see what could possibly be shorted out to cause that condition that you're seeing now, ie. no power when rear window defog switch is used, and then look around to see where the wires are touching.
