rewire MAF sensor, ECU direct??

[s13X2r32]

Yeah so here is the problem, i own a r32 Nissan skyline with an RB20det. My ECU reads MAF error, how ever i have tried 2 different MAF, with no change in car. I have also used 2 different ECU and still no change. i have replaced all vac hoses and am sure there is no leak.

I am no to the point there must be a broken wire somewhere in the harness, so my plan was just to run it directly from ecu to the MAF connector, I have checked and the plug has good continuity as well,

I know the MAF uses 4 wire, one 12 V. a Ground, a signal wire (returns to ECU) and a signal ground. can i run just a fused 12v and run a chassis ground, and just run the 2 signal wires back to the ECU??

i just want to miss as much of the old harness i can, thanks ahead of time,. WHAT WIRES can i RUN where??
