So I've neglected my nexus for long enough. To go from 4.1.1 to 4.4 do I just flash a new ROM or do I need to flash a new kernel and firmware first??

Get the factory image, extract it and open the extracted folder, if you're using linux run "flash-all.sh" / windows run "flash-all.bat" while your nexus is connected in FastBoot mode. If you open the script in a text editor you will see that everything is already in it.

Stupid me didn't make a backup and flashed another ROM. How do I flash back the stock ROM, enabling me to get OTAs but maintain root? I want the original stock ROM...

Not really much of a point having the ability to get OTA when a new one comes out, a dev will do what is below shortly after anyway. OTA's are over rated..
Android OS, 4.1.1 Jellybean build JRO03D
Insecure boot.img
Rooted with the latest superuser
Busybox
Deodexed and Odexed options
Fully Zipaligned

Note that the downloads apparently don't work at the moment.
If you used the nexus root toolkit, it has the factory image there for you to flash back to stock and/or unroot/relock the device. Windows users only. -Ara

So is there no flashable zip for stock? I am a Mac. I rooted on my little brother's PC but he lives 1600 miles from me.

Did you take a look at the [Guide] Returning to Stock and/or Unbricking your device directions in the Nexus 7 Android Development forum?
If using a Mac, see the following link for setting up ADB/Fastboot drivers on Mac OS X.
How to Setup ADB and FASTBOOT Drivers on MAC
Edit to add: Factory image for the Nexus 7 can be downloaded at this Google link.
Factory Images "nakasi" for Nexus 7

Did you create a Nandroid backup with either ClockworkMod Recovery or TWRP? This would be the easiest and fastest way to do it. If not, efrant wrote an awesome guide for returning the Nexus 4 back to stock

You don't flash factory images with recovery, you use fastboot.

It's all in the link that Acuity posted, just read it step by step and you'll end up back to stock.
In my Nexus 4 rooted was installed a rom AOKP but when I restart system, the OS don´t detect simcard neither wifi...in settings wifi is undetected ON/OFF is disable, also without MAC number. I try to install an original rom stock android 4.3, using two methods from terminal and with Nexus Root Toolkit, but in both ways send me the follow message:
archive does not contain 'boot.sig'
archive does not contain 'recovery.sig'
archive does not contain 'system.sig'
and I believe that those files are my problem when I install android 4.3.
SOMEBODY HELP ME?

do a clean install / stock 4.3 firmware
Those errors appear every flash for everybody. Your problem sounds like a radio issue. Does it show anything for baseband?
Did you actually wait for it to finish.
That screenshot you posted was still in the process of sending the system image to your phone

sorry, i know there's a few thread where they will guide me through to root my nexus 4. but i'm bit dumb on all these. At this moment, i'm on lollipop 5.0.1 and there's a lot feature are bit annoying, especially turning on & off the mobile data. So after quick google & read on thread, there's one widget can turn on and off easily the mobile data but it needs to root. so i have no choice i have to root my nexus 4.
