have you checked the ISC? if not give it a clean and make sure it is working. i had a rough idle problem that turned out to be the wire to the ISC was broken. so check it has power, the wire can be broken in the loom where you cant see it.

If the above doesn't sort it then look at the HEGO sensors in the exhaust and the coil packs, they're only good for 80-90k.
