Saying Hi, and suggestions

Hey everyone, my names Keith, I live in MA. Im kinda new to the z32 world, but not new to cars. I come from the F-body world, I own a 1993 Z28 camaro. But Im set on buying this TT z32 I found. Its a 1990 white TT z32 5 spd. The chassis has 180k on it, but the motor has been swapped for a jdm motor with about 40-50k on it.
Heres the ad:
1990 Nissan 300zx Twin Turbo 2 Seater - Pearl White

So the price is more than fair, He said he replaced the upper intake plenum gasket, check his IC piping, and checked the vacuum lines. Car still doesnt run right. I heard the car run today, it runs if you keep your foot into it, sounds good, and I trust this kid, cuz I know him sort of.

So if you people could point me in the right direction as to what this problem could be, and offer any suggestions, I would appreciate it.

Im thinking maybe IAC? MAP?? and the only thing left that i could think of would be lower plenum gasket, or maybe he over looked a broken vacuum line, I saw a few hoses that looked to be in rough shape, but it could also be something else. Who knows.

Thanks
