    I'm no genius but with your vague description it could be shit plugs , don't take my word for it but this isn't internet warrior , this is experience , mines a ca18det but same situation and that's what fixed it

    Check for boost leaks, should be a small boost pipe coming off your air intake pipe it might of came loose when putting new filter on, also try changing afm, check all intercooler pipes for leaks and loose joiners

    Make sure you haven't damaged any wires coming off the z32 maf when you were changing the filter.

    Ok so went to start the car today as have been away for the weekend and it wont even start now. It did for a couple of seconds but major low and lumpy revs so my guess is plugs. Any other ideas?

    Ignitor chip maybe? Knock sensor? Wiring to the cas. Check all fuses,and earths especially the earth on the back of the engine going to the bulk head,

    Im in germany now buddy i work over here. Ok so had a look at plugs there fine nearly new, check wiring all looks ok then it started and was working fine got 5 miles down the road and its doin it again. Hits boost fine and has full power below 3500 any more then a touch on the throttle it does it and also changin gear it backfires more then usual.
