He took it home today .
Crank sensor was a issue in the car . But always acted funny here and there . I rewired the crank sensor with a shielded wire , cleaned all the grounds . Ground looped the the ground behind the dash that ground the sensors and ran it to the ground in the fenderwell to that they share a common ground . I also grounded the sensor to the body instead of the ecu . Seemed to fix 95% of his problems . Took three crank sensors to find one the car liked . Come to find out Nissan is having issues with new sensors right out of the box ...
He still has some hickups here and there , but they are getting much better . We also took about two QT's of fluid out of the tranny , as everyone we talk to see to think it did not have enough . This also help out some .
I will let Andy chime in as he is the one that got to drive it from NH back to Mass and can give you his opinion ...

Shhhh...you weren't supposed to tell people I took it home
The car runs great. I have a little hiccup in the low RPM maybe 15% of the time and only when I mash the throttle. During normal acceleration there are no issues.
When we took those 2 quarts out, the car responded much better. I honestly think another half a quart taken out and the car will run perfect since we're still a little high on the dipstick.
It has never idled or started better since I've owned the car; even stock.
A job well done by Ballistic!!!
