after i got my last problem sorted out i got it running smoothly again but then i replaced my fuel filter with a z32 fuel filter and now it runs really rich and it seems like it wont go into closed loop operation and whenever i hit the gas it hesitates and the rpms drop real bad and it bogs. i have no idea what the problem could be

Is it the right kind of fuel filter for you car or just a "preformance one" you got for your car.

sure you didnt knock anything loose by accident when you changed it.. i know stupid question but the fuse box is close to it and there isnt ALOT of hand room.. make sure everything is snug.
