ok.. so heres the problem. my car wil idel and run fine until it warms up then it stutters really bad and doesnt idel. so far i have replaced fpr,plugs,wires,thermostat. whatever it is is obviously temp controlled. my next step is ecu because mine is not throwing any codes and my car is messed up. oh and my plugs were all soaked with gas and at high rpm it burn really really rich.

i've not messed with the older VG's too much but if its temp related, it might be the cylinder head temp sensor (in the head, near the distributor)

I can't think of what else that would be. Might ask the guys at http://www.Z31performance.com. They are very knowledgeable on the Z31.

it sounds like a CHTS (cylinder head temperature sensor). Also, verify and reverify that your ignition timing is correct, if you are too retarded or too advanced, you will not get a complete burn, explaining the fuel soaked plugs.
