idling issue

New problem on the horizon... The past few mornings on the way to work, when I come to a stop, my Z has been idling at around 500RPM..so low, that the car feels like it is going to shut off (and some times it does) as soon as it gets to normal engine temp, the car wont die anymore, however it still Idles rediculously low (even gets to around 250RPM at times) any quick fix on this? Thanks

well did u do anything, like parts wise. i mean change anything ? or did you un hook the piping from your stock wastegates. If you did then it wont have enough air flowing into the intake, and your car will idel low and die sometimes and mabye feel like its going to die, but i need to know more about your car, like if it has had anything done to it and if so what was done and when ?

I haven't done anything yet... it's been doing this since day one. The previous owner told me that it had a "few issues" I guess this is one that he never got around to doing anything about? Maybe a new AFM?
