I've had my sr20 swap for about 2 months now and its been running beautiful. I've never had any problems with it up until now. Well i was just lowering my car a little, you know adjusting the coilovers, then I finish and im about to take the car for a spin, but it wont crank. When i push started it, it turned on with no problem... I have a big feeling that its my starter or maby an electrical problem.. Can u guys give me any suggestion on what it can be, what i can check, and what i can do about it?? Please guys i love my car and i want it up and running again...

You've given no details on the matter. What have you checked so far. It's like someone saying "I've tried nothing man and I'm all out of ideas." Details first, then I'm sure people will give you ideas on the matter.

I agree with 180 about the details, it's like if you want help but you can't even help us help you. Don't worry about it though.

First off, does it click at all when you turn your key to the start position, if it's completely quiet, there's a good chance when lifiting your car, you bumped a wire somewhere and it came loose.

If there is a click, click, click, noice when you try to start, then chances are you have a bad battery that isn't charging correctly or possibly a bad starter.

i'm willing to bet that its the battery....did you try to jump it at all?first off take the battery up to autozone and they will charge it for free...if that doesn't work next check your starter
