ive got a 92 vert that came with a blown headgasket and the engine in pieces. I removed the transmission and engine from the vert and cleaned it up a bit. Im dropping a ka from a 95 240sx and ive got plugs and wires that are just chillin with no where to be plugged in at. There is one right at the start of the fuel rail its an inlet thats on the motor, i have nothing to plug into this, a black and a brown plug that is the first two plugs that come off the harness and runs behind the engine to the other side, then i noticed the distributor is a different distributor all togetherthe harness has 2 plugs and this distributor only requires one, 3 plugs coming straight outta the fuse box by the battery tray that was for the auto transmission, i believe the cruise control was ghetto rigged, its got a wire goin straight to the battery and then 2 other wires leading to nothing because they were cut, a wire coming off the alternator harness that is solid yellow with a blue stripe on both wires, and finally I have no clue how to wire up the 5spd transmission. I cant pull the harness off the 98 without completely cutting it off and the auto transmission harness wont sufice obviously.

Any help with this would be apprieciated, im going to go hook up the drive shaft and mount the transmission and engine whilst I wait for replies :)

For '95 engine in S13 you need to swap the intake manifolds (put S13 on the '95 engine). Also want to make sure you have S13 5speed speed sensor in the transmission.

You will have extra wires on the transmission unless you wire them. There is a reverse sensor for reverse lights and a 4th/5th gear sensor for cruise to work.
