hey everybody.

ive been posting for a while but I never showed you my s13 or why i'm on here so often.

1 year ago, I bought my first car - black redtop s13. from queens ny and and i brought down to georgia where I go to school at SCAD



Last october i got into an accident.



through the powers that be. I bought a really nice 90 shell with no rust for 2500. vlsd, big brakes, whiteline and cusco, jic magic fla 2. r32 axle.



and with the help of nico and some great friends I swapped my motor over the course of two months, on the weekends.





mostly everything is done,



but there is still some work left to do, which is why i started this thread.

here is my problem.

When I connect my battery to the fuse box. Headlights, horn, and windshield wipers all turn on.

I may have to take it to a wiring specialist, but for now I am here. [ I have lots of pics of the wiring harness coming shortly. ]

P.S. the two red wires above are the battery cable and main fuse box wires. the top left is coming from the trunk battery. bottom left is fuze box.

woah... very weird that this popped up in my most recent threads.

the wiring is good, I found another engine harness / fuses boxes. and swapped over the entire thing and It cranked up right away.

the car needs... a transformation so I'm saving up for something special.

That is a nice looking s13. Good deal too $2500 for all that and sil front sounds like a steal.You should give us some updated pics now of it since this thread has been dead a year, and they'll be good 'before' shots of said transformation.
