Need help
I have a 84 300zx with a new motor, turbo, starter,and much much more in fact the bill at nissan was over $8,400.00.
"it currently has 2500 miles on the motor and 92,000 on the car"
Recently ive been driving it around town and it acts like someone shuts it off. it doesnt do it going down the highway just at an idle or more less letting the car coast or pull it self or at a stop sign. turn the key and it starts right up no problem. keep in mind this car has a new motor, new fuel systm, new pluggs, new wires, new cap and rotor, and much much more. my guess its some kind of sensor but which one if you have seen some thing like this before or have any kind of a response than please contact me at jlcthexbullrider@yahoo.com
thanks jared
P.S. Its for sale $7,000.00 i know im out off my mind just been one of those deals every one calls it the DEVIL CAR but one of these days im going to win the fight after $8,400.00 and 5 years i think i have the lead.

Does the car run cold? Or does it heat up to a normal level on the gauge? If too cold, it might be cuttin out.
Could be your idle is set too low.
I know it's Fuel Injection, but that sounds like crappy carbs I've had
My guess is that it's something with the engine that isn't set right...even if it is new.
