wire tuck / bay shave on da6. few questions and lots of pics
first i will say i am very dedicated to this car.. i have not missed one thing yet.. but now its time for the engine bay compartment and motor swap. i am doing a JDM b16a1 with some easy bolt ons for now. a wire tuck. and engine bay shave. and heres for the big part i just started last saterday and i only have 3 weeks for the car to be painted and another month to have the car done.
so i need you guys. everyone that has useful information for me as i have never done this part before. i have done a decent amount of research but there is a lot i am still blury about..
This is what i will be doing to the car:
b16a1 with some easy bolt ons for right now
wire tuck
engine bay shave
inline fuel filter
re-routing brake lines
removed ac, power steering, wiper motor, washer fluid, cruise control,
relocating the fuse box inside the car
hiding the coolant over flow
so far i have taken the motor out.. removed all the wireing, all power steering hoses. and removed a few other things. i have welded shut most of the holes accept for the firewall.
here is what the car looked like before the tuck.


and here is the wire tuck/bay shave

does anyone know what goes in the plug above the long yellow wire??
and this wire i can see in one of my pics that it goes over and down the left side of the master brake cylnder and plugs into something i just can find any extra harness?? hmm any ideas?
and i have the vacume lines under the cowl any ideas how to get the hoses there safely? the hoses like in the middle of the pic.. usally on the other side of the firewall and plugs into the intake manifold?

any ideas for the catch can... i found a moroso one.. but not sure if that is what i need
