hey! ive got the 2.2 setup and had the same issues! it has now not become so regular but i recently had a rolling road day and courtenays and they said the air flow meter was faulty and causing the engine to run lean so im on the hunt for maybe a vxr afm!!!

Check to see if the wires on the AFM has not come out, Have you extended them??? Make sure the AFM arrow is pointed towards the turbo;)

The AFM plug wires are Red/white, Brown, Red and Blue/white not sure what number but it's the last one it should be easy to work out from that;)
