Final update!!!!!--->
After trial and error of swapping parts and buying new ones, I have fixed the problem. I recently purchased an intercooler setup for an S14 SR, had to fab a bit but it looks way better than my old one. Problem still persisted after the new kit, so that narrowed out any sort of a boost leak( new couplers and T-bolt clamps too). I started to look into fuel issues and all the injectors checked out great. No leaks or malfunctions, walbro worked fine with last setup and F/F is a new 300ZX, however......I went back to my previous suspicion of the FPR. I found a guy that had an Aeromotive Adj. FPR already setup for an SR. He was kind enough to let me borrow it to test with. So I bolted it on and went for some test drives. At first my a** dyno couldnt tell a difference, still felt somewhat "held-back". But the stumbling was not as noticeable....After about 9-10 good pulls up and down the highway and slowly upping the pressure at each stop, I apparently reached the magic number. Ending fuel pressures:
With Vacuum Connected: 39psi
Without Vacuum Connected:49psi
I feel pretty safe with these numbers. A/F stayed around 11 +/-2 at WOT. Mostly on the richer side of 11.
Slightly more stalls due to BOV venting to Atmosphere and it is much richer than with the stock FPR. It was maxing fuel pressure with vacuum at 32psi. Definitely hid itself on the UEGO. Consult was no help either due to slow OTC Scanner . Unfortunately my ECU had no LED so codes were unattainable also. Keep in mind this engine is in stock form, with32K miles, FMIC, WALBRO, Z32 F/F and BKRE7's gapped at .28.
This may have seemed a little drawn out but I didn't want to be that guy who never posted his fix. I'm sure there is someone having a similar set of symptoms as mine and could be going crazy like me

hno: :bang . Its forums like NICO that help us. Hope this helps also.
