Question Sudden power loss on '87 200sx past 3500 rpm

I have this strange problem on my '87 200sx. When accelerating past 3500 rpm the engine suddenly losses power and starts missing. I changed the cap, rotor, spark plugs, spark plug wires, fuel filter and checked the vacuum lines. I am currently running some fuel injector cleaner through it to see if that helps. Any other suggestions?

Oil and filter changed 500 miles ago. Fairly recent.

Air filter? Dirty throttle body? I've even heard of bad grounds
