First off, I'm a 5spd, are any of you autos?

GREAT work with the OBD-II scanner rx7racr! That eliminates a lot of possibilities already, thanks!

If I can find the time, I wanna try and make a video of what my car does...I'm curious if it's the same thing or not. Sounds similar, but like I said, mine feels like the engine is rocking back and forth. Like I'm flooring it then letting off then flooring it really really really fast.

Slickismax, you talking about a fuel pressure gauge? That's rather intriguing...I can't think of why the ecu would cut fuel unless there is some other sensor malfunctioning...but could it be a fuel pump problem?
