john,
im workin in the AM today, and i have to finish my moms floor this afternoon.
i MIGHT be able to get there today, but chances are i wont be able to get there till sunday..
keep trying! its not as hard as it seems. just a matter of wiggling the mount into place, then getting the crossmember in with it.
ill give you a call if i have time to swing up there today smile.gif

check all your fuses and grounds. make sure you battery didnt loose its charge when it was sitting all this time. i pretty much had the same results with my car when i first put my harness in.

i also had the same problem. first time it was the battery. test it with a multimeter. then when i knew the battery was charged, it still did that, and it was the MAIN fuze plug...the really big one under the fuze box. make sure its tight and everything magically came to life.
check starter, check igniter, ect. those are fine. it has to be a fuse or a meesed up wire in the harness. everything is plugged in and i dont have power windows, radio, ac/heat, so thats a matter of a fuse. right... do i need to swap relays and fuses from the interior JDM clip? everything is plugged in... Hmm batman when u see this call me tongue.gif

yeah man. im glad i finally got it done. tried to reduce downtime by having dr.tweak my harness. and it worked. had it back before my clutch came in so i was set.
the harness was nice and def made the swap alot easier,
since i dont have the time to learn what i would need to hack and slash.
so yeah, thanks Dr.tweak for the harness.
