You can get all the wiring diagrams you'll need for a GSL-SE here:
http://foxed.ca/foxed/index.php?page=rx7manual

But depending on if you're swapping EVERYTHING including emissions and such over or you are stripping it down to just the simplified setup, you will likely have to do some searching through the first gen forum on what to do.

there are two grounds that are bolted to the emissions rack. they are for the fuel injection and they bolt to the rack through the same hole.

You might also want to check the "Other Rotary" section, there are's a lot of engine swap experience there.

Show us some pics!

ha thanks this is my car by the way my bro there made the post

friend of mine gave me his ae86 for free with a clean tittle so i started working on it

has some rust and missing some parts

plans are

13b bridgeported
vaccums and emissions deleted
racing beat header
full 3 inch exhaust (not cats )
reupholster the interior
repolish the wheels and find some drift rims
coilovers
tucked engine bay
aluminum radiator
and much more

started sanding down the old paint fixing the rust

put some wheels on

wripped out the 4age

then degreased the engine bay

and put in a 13b

finished the mounts



racing beat header exhaust almost done



shitty engine bay pics(iphone quality)





took the fd seats making seat rails for it now so the interior is going to be black and tan and the outside red



maybe daily these since the welds have slicks on the rear
