Thanks guys. I am like a kid in a candy store. For now Ima run the stock rooted 4.04 (latest build imm76k) and just play around with a few kernels. Being a new build is out and im all over the place trying to decide what rom i wanna run.... ima calm down and o some research to find a combination of roms and kernels that suits me and then ill make it happen. But right now I just reunited with my nexus and set my rezound down. I am liking the reviews for axiom and will probably give that a whirl. So guys keep it coming with rom suggestions...and as much heck as I gave the nexus its good to be back.
Aokp is always a good bet, tons of features and lots of support, its very stable and lots of themes and mods. Aokp and aokp based roms are almost definitely the most popular there is right now.
Liquid is SUPER fast and smooth but people tend to have more bugs than other roms (not many really though)
And sourcery isn't quite as fast as others and is only 4.0.3 with many features of 4.0.4 but, by far has the best theming type customization
Cyanogenmod severely lacks features at the moment but is pretty stable
Bugless beast is essentially a modified, optimized stock rom (not many features at all and doesn't have support for running scripts at boot)
Basically all the most popular roms are very stable, its more about what you want your phone to look like, what extra features you want and what type of performance you want
As far as kernels, the best bets are faux (easiest to use without anything extra needed), leankernel (second easiest, just need to find and install the latest lean tweaks script) and lastly, Franco kernel (simply because you have to buy the app to unlock its full potential, app also supports basic things for leankernel as well)
