alright, so the only problem was the throttle body timing switch or whatever, just had to readjust it then it idles fine. Well kinda, when the car starts off it doesn't idle to well but after it warms up it idles fine. woot! now onwards to the exterior bodywork!

Now i'm running into another problem with my motor. When i slowly rev it to 3rpm the engine dies to 2rpm.. then it goes back to 3rpm.. then goes back to 2... then it just keeps repeating, but if i rev it hard there is no problem. There was no problem for about a week and a half with reving until now. Anyone know what the problem might be?

yeah, wut he sed. or you might pull the plug off the AFM and clean the contacts. might was doing that after I washed the engine, turned out there was water in the plug and that was causing surging. Dried and cleaned the plug, no problems since.
