starting wednesday my car wont start. havent been having any starting issues. whatev. got it home took the starter off got it checked, works just dandy so i threw it back on still wont start, obviously used a diff battery too (my battery was dead though) so i did a lil searchin on here and found that the starter relay found commonly between the battery and fender on s13s. Im not sure where this is on s14s though. Is it in the same spot? I would like to replace this and see whats up.
Is there anything else i should check? maybe try another battery that i am CERTAIN is 100% charged instead of one that i wasnt 100% sure how charged it was.. i dunno. dont think it was the battery anyway cause i tried jumping the car to no avail. Lemme know guys and ill reward you with tein tie rod pics :p lol

Are all your electrical accessories light radio, gauges, and etc coming on when you turn the key?
I had an issue with mine not always starting when I bumped it over, wouldn't even crank unless I kept trying and trying. Turned out to the ignition switch had to be replaced. Not entirely sure thats whats up, but its another idea.

update i guess. took alternator off and got it tested, thing is toast. So its possible that my battery was just so dead it couldnt do more than make my starter barely click. Possible considering i had to pop start it, drive 30 minutes drawing direct power from a battery. Ordered the starter relay anyway *shrug*
Yeah all my lights, radio, gauges etc come on when i turn the key. power windows all that jive (albeit radio turns on for about 4 seconds before turning off again)
