i have a 91 rex with a 1 g b16...i need a new starter....is the only started that will work a jdm starter...can i us an SI starter or a DA starter?

 

I know that an obd0 DA (90-91 integra) starter works.

 

ok what about a 93?

 

hehe i intentionally left that out cause i wasn't sure.

I believe they do work. I've heard they do, just have never used one personally. Someone will come along here and enlighten us.

Did you try comparing part numbers from aftermarket companies?

 

ok figured out its not the starter....when i turn the key i hear the solnoid move......so what can it be? when i bump start it it works fine. all ive done is relocate the batery to the back...?

 

does bump start mean you put 12 volts to it?

or are you talking about clutch starting it while it's rolling?

I assume you mean the former, and if you can put battery power directly to the starter and then it works, i would think it's gotta be the battery relocation wiring that is causing problems.

I went through this exact same thing 2 years ago, it was the wiring.

 

WELL I DID IT A WHILE AGO....WORKED FINE WITH AN OPTIMA RED TOP.....THEN SOME ONE BROKE INTO MY CAR AND STOLE MY BATERY......DEPRIVED OF MY PRIDE I BOUGHT A CHEAP BATTERY AND THEN IT STARTED HAPPENING :-(

 

jesus fucken christ man that sucks

your starter pulls more volts if it doesn't get enough amps. Your battery is probably not supplying enough amps. In the process, you're destroying your starter wiring and perhaps other wires. Get a good battery in there just like you should have from the fucken beginning.

thieves suck, but you gotta suck it up and deal.

 

it was a temp battery.......had no ends

 

from now on, look at the most recent change to your vehicle.

that is usually the cause of your problems.

if not, it's a good place to start.

 

ok well heres the thing i had a tack that was also stolen and when i got my battery i went to start my car and i heard it spark under my dash...where the power wire was...then nothing...???

 

check your main fuse

 

where is main fuse?

 

underhood fuse box, should be either 70 or 80 amps.

it's one of the big ones
