Woot! New speakers installed!

Josh! Do you work tomorrow? I was wondering if I could get an alignment.
PM/Text me foo!

hey where did you get those plates cause i just got some new speakers that are 5 1/4 inch and i was wondering if i would need a bracket or somethin.

[Razi]

I got it off eBay.
They are for 6.5" speakers though.

Here's a template though:

The center hole is for a 6.5" speaker, but you can trace it to 5.25" and make your own from wood or something.

I got an n62 MAF pigtail today for free, I guess that means I've started the parts collection for z32 mafs/550cc injectors.

[Razi]

Nom nom!

I got back from getting an alignment at Josh's work haha.
Then I picked up a new front main seal at Autozone.
Fudge, now I gotta install this thing.

[Frank E Bones]

Good stuff you guys. Chris free s*** is always good. So how does it feel now Razi, much better I bet. On another note, I still havent figured out what the fack is wrong with my car. I FINALLY got the damn starter off, and it checked out fine. My car still wont crank, FUUUUU. Im gonna check the relays tomorrow.

[Razi]

That sucks Frank.
Try cleaning the grounding wires and stuff too, those might corroded a bit.

Those were checked when I was removing everything. They looked good. As of now, I have the Battery, Alternator and Starter out. Im taking em to another spot tomorrow just to get a second opinion. God this is freakin frustrating. Oh and why the f*** didnt anyone tell me that its almost impossible to remove the starter on these things!!!

[Kckouki]

So for the RB20 maf, is there another plug thatll work for it other than the rb20 one?

You have a multimeter FEBs? No meter, no worky!!!

Checking for power is the easiest way to troubleshoot something. Have you tested the starter? Take a hot lead from the battery and touch it to the hot post on the starter (make sure it's grounded first). If the starter is functional the gear will come out and spin. If it's bad, nothing will happen. Try giving the solenoid a wack as well. If it works after the percussion adjustment, get a new starter.

Casey, what color blue is that? I don't know about the RB20 MAF plug, but ask on the RB subforum and check with rawbrokerage too.

Negative, Josh ask me the same thing. I needz ta get me one. Ill look into getting one today. Like I said I took the starter to get it checked and it tested fine The problem with taking the starter to Autozone to get it tested though is, the last time I helped my nephew with his car we new the starter was the problem. So I took the starter out, took it to them to test it and in checked out fine too We replaced it anyway and its been working fine ever since.
So im stuck on what to do, other than replacing the starter relay, since theres no way of checking it. Thanx for the suggestions though

I didn't read all the crap surrounding your issue...sorry for the repeat advice.

Harbor Freight has some decent/cheap multimeters.

Must have missed it. Im going to reinstall everything right now and just replace the Starter relay to see if that might be the problem. Thanx for chiming in though WD. Will chem em out as well.

yeah i did a starter job on christmas day about 2 years ago, (i remember this because it was freakishly warm for christmas in PA) but you deffinitly need jacks and an extra set of hands.
but check your ingnition switch and see if its telling the fule pump to prime.

Yeah, I told Josh that I was half tempted to use my son to get at that damn top bolt. I knew he wouldnt have the strenght to undo the bolt, so that was a no-go. Anyway as it so happens It was the f*** starter after all FUUUUU AutoZone and all your dumbass employees!!! It was the Solenoid that was facked. My mechanic buddy got me a new starter for only $65. I will be installing it later when I get home and update you guys later.

Thank you guys for all the input. I knew I could count on you foolios

S-chassis starter? Surely yall aren't talking about that being a pain. It wasn't fun but I replaced mine last time from the top, just helps with no a/c or emissions things to get in the way.

[spooled240]

if you cruise around the street you'll find some cool cars like aristo's, some s14's and a few s13's at gas stations (employee's cars, just like initial D omg!)

Yup, thats how I eventually got it out. I have all that stuff in the way, and had to remove it and get it out of the way. The starter itself is a breeze (except that f*** top bolt)
