starter failure

Posted 09-18-2011 at 10:39 PM by bradcurtis15 (Once upin a time lived a 1g)

Went to start my car and it was acting like a dead battery but the battery was fullly charged. Next day car wouldn't turn over at all so I banbged on the starter a bit and it started. After that I knew it was time for a new one now it starts like a champ!

Met a Guy on Craigslist and he works for ets. He sold Mr his piping for 100$ and got me a core for 250$. Beats 799$ lol. I had to do some cutting and had to make a new coolant overflow but all in all it was fairly simple. I had to tap my j pipe so I could hook up my boost controller. The front mount had two brackets on top so you can bolt right up to you bumper core
Here's a few pics

I found that I have a Missing rear moter mount bolt which sucks now I gotta find one somewhere but that shouldn't be too hard I assume... I went ahead and check my master today and the 2100 beat the crap out of it so now I am going...
