2003 350z Track Edition Bogging, jerking, power cut issue
2003 350z Track Edition Issue 🚨 PLEASE HELP (Gonna try make it as quick as possible)
The issue is it bogs down in low rpm’s between idle and 3.5 - 4k rpm, it jerks back and forth while driving, and sometimes will cut power completely and then spring back on which will then turn the VDC Off and SLIP light on or sometimes will completely stall out, also while at idle at a set of lights will just turn off. I have tried; cleaned and flow tested injectors, replaced spark plugs and bad looking coil packs, cleaned MAF, replaced doggy high flow cats with cat delete pipes, cleaned o2 sensors. The only thing that has made the issue go away temporarily was when I replace the driver and passenger side fuel dampeners, the car drove completely fine and didn’t have any problems, then the problem came back but now it’s an intermediate problem, sometimes drives fine, sometimes drives like ****. If anyone can help me at all, I’m open ears !!!

Did you pull the DTCs? What're they telling you? Can't do much if the basic codes are unknown.
My crystal ball is in the shop right now for repairs, but my guess is the camshaft and/or crankshaft position sensor(s).
If it is after you have confirmed by pulling the codes, replace with OEM or equivalent and not aftermarket.
