very true, leak is after factory 02 and before wideband. wideband is reading good cause i can hear the horriblness of the idle as the afrs change! i can also hear when the idle gets better as the afrs get better. exh. leak will be fixed but im so shocked the couple could cause all this. car runs and idles perfect like it did before with the hotside pipe off, as soon as its back on it turns into running like butt!

You need to fix all the leaks in the exhaust and make sure there are no more in the ic piping. Then it comes down to looking at sensors. This is why I asked if you could data log. I have found that nissan datascan is great for fixing problems.

****UPDATE****

well i fix the exhaut leak and man does that sound 100% better. what i also notice which i think may have been or contributed to the problem was that there was some separtion of piping between the z32 maf and TB intake pipe it connects to. the maf side slide out of the coupler slightly and so did the pipe, though they were both connected still. fixed that and now the afr's are DEAD on! idles back like i want it to with the arfs i want it to idle at. no more stumlbe or popping when i give it gas and doesnt have that camming muscle car idle. still need another coupler but so far so good, still need to road test it also
