Default Quick crankshaft sensor question

*I know this has been over done but i cant find anything on this specific issue*
2003 Touring Z 6MT

Couple months ago i replaced both camshaft sensors because of the common problem with the VQ35DE blah blah blah.

I bought OEM camshaft sensors and for some wild reason i bought the Autozone CRANKshaft sensor. Shortly after installing these 3 i noticed that when my car is fully warm and i rev it it will come down to about 200-300 RPM's and the entire car will shake for about 1-2 seconds then go back to normal idle. Seems like a vacuum leak or misfire but i recently did brand new plugs (They were due anyway) and checked all vacuum lines everything is in tip top shape but im just having this issue. It also happens when im rolling up to a stoplight and put the car into neutral.

Could it be the Cheapo crankshaft sensor?

*EDIT* Yes ive tried the idle relearn/All reset methods.
