Ok well I got my RB25 in and for the most part wired up. Theres a few things that were cut off of my motor set and im not sure what they are. Please help me out I really wanna fire this thing up this weekend. Also I dont want to use my boost solenoid since it is cracked, how do i run the vacume line with out it?

Here is what I need help with:

Where do these vacume lines run? (pic 1)

What are these wires for (located by firewall on RB harness) (pic 2)

What are these wires for (located by firewall on RB harness) (pic 3)

Is this the MAFS sensor plug? It doesnt fit into my MAF so I think mabey I got the wrong MAF. (Located by 02 sensor) (Pic 4)

What is this? The wires coming out of the other end are cut as you can see in the picture after it. (Pic 5)

These wires come out of the plug and were cut in the previous picture (Pic 6)

This plug comes out of the Relay box on the passenger side (part of the OEM 89-90 Wire harness) (Pic 7)

Another View of the last one (Pic 9)

Where do the wires go coming out of here? Again this is out of the relay box on the passenger side (Pic 10)

This wire comes out of the previous Black plug. Where does it connect into? (Pic 11)

Where does this Black/Red wire go? (it is a spade type connector onto the starter and was cut) I belive this is the starter solenoid wire but where does it connect into? (Pic 12)

This is Located on the KA Lower harness that I am using for the RB (pic 13)

The only thing I can help with is the vaccum lines. They go to your charcoal filter. They should run along the back/under side of the cross pipe from the throttle body. Should be two black rubber lines.

I think it was pic four? But yes that appears to be your MAFS plug and should run behind the engine and together with the o2 plug... what MAFS do you have, top right corner will be numbered for instance stock RB20 or Maxima is the N60 and a Z32 is an N62.
