Gas Smell and stalls when on neutral

The problem that im having with my Z is that I have lost a lot of power also i have a bad gas smell when i turn on the car and when i drive it. its a constant smell it doesnt go off after a few minutes like ive read about other cars and also my right exhaust is rumbling soft and smells a bit like gas while my left is rumbling just fine i could feel it and doesnt smell like gas just regular exhaust smells. also the car idle needle bounces low until stalling completely and this happens every time after getting off the highway. May i add that i recently replaced all 6 injectors with some brand new ones. Any ideas what could be the cause/causes

Thanks Nismo pick and well actually no i havent one of my friends told me how to do it but i forgot i guess i can simply google it to find out how to do it. And i will plan to do it. ill post the codes when i pull them which would probably be in 2 weeks since i left the car at home and im currently in college.

i had the same exact problem with mine the idling on mine with it almost dying out and i changed the spark plugs and coils. The unburned fuel smell on mine was the injectors.
