so now that i have my car going ive ran into a few problems. the only one i keep having trouble with is the engine likes to die at random times. it does it when i push in the clutch and take it out of gear and brake around a curve or something about once a day. if you turn the key it will start right back up though. sitting at an idle it does have some quirks, it doesnt keep a perfect idle, it speeds up and slows down a little, but its nothing bad. any ideas what could be going on? im almost wondering if its the battery, i bought a real cheap battery that has crap for amps, do you think it could be causing this? or whats the deal with the isc on these?

ISC's don't generally cause a vehicle to stall. Just annoy the crap out of you with reving between 1000-1500RPM when you are at a stop light!
My car used to stall all the time when I would push in the clutch on decelleration and some times right before I came to a stop. This occured most notibly after I installed the Fidanza Flywheel though. The engine would just drop revs faster than the ECU could keep-up to keep the engine running. I ended up just slowing down very carefully in times like that. So I'm not sure if any of this applies to your problem, but those are my experiences.
