I understand what you're trying todo I just became part of this forum because of this post. I have a 08 turbo altima and i putting a aftermarket pressure regulator in. I am doing it within the next couple days. From what I have planned is install the aftermarket first. By cutting the line before the fuel rail and mount and connect the hoses. Start the car and set your regulator at the stock pressure. Next pull your pump out. This is where I need help... if I remove the regulator what will return the extra fuel because pumps run the whole time. So I think you have to run a return lime back right? To stop pressure build up and burn the pump?

So after several hours in my shop last night. I found out this is impossible to put a adjustable regulator on my altima... it is not just a static pump that runs all the time... there is no regulator at all. I took the pump apart and checked every line from the pump to my rail and it is not there.... so what do I do?

Back to the OP first post, "I'm tired of this fuel pressure dropping issue!"
Regulators dont often drop fuel pressure intermittently.
I'd be looking at the fuel pump, or an electrical issue with the fuel pump.
I'd install a fuel pressure test gauge and tape it to the outside of the windscreen.
Drive the car and monitor the fuel pressure under load as well as static and also check that it holds pressure when shut off.
Bring the results back here.
I'd say that if you change your fuel pressure, you will need to tune it some how.
Why do you need to change the fuel pressure?
