Must... get... spellcheck...

Did you put all the gaskets back in correctly? Did you leave a sensor unplugged or something?

whoa. I had to read it 3 time to make sense of it all.

Dude, check of of your connections, vacuum lines, and make sure your gaskets are aligned.

While the engine is running, spray carb cleaner around the intake manifold and if the idle rises, you know you have a leak. Be sure the engine is not too hot when you do this. also, did you check the MAF to make sure it was also clean/positioned correctly/hooked up?

So you got involved in a project on the car too advanced for your skill level. Put the car back improperly, now it runs like ****. You get drunk and still cant fix the problems and that makes hondas better then nissan? Wow they really must be amazing if they auto fix your retardation. *Off to the dealer to buy a honda*

Dude, seriously on the grammar.

Now on to the problem: it sounds definitely like a vacuum leak. If all hoses are good (check for cracks and cuts in old hoses), all plugs are plugged in, mass air is not damaged (you didn't try to clean it did you?)... then it must be a leaking gasket. I will tell you a secret trick for the old gaskets; go get a can of copper spray. Spray both sides of the gasket, let it sit up for 10-15mins getting tacky, then reinstall.

Remember, do all the easy and free stuff first.
