******* loved my 'quest.. Got it for $1200 with 70k in it, no rust. Just wouldn't start. Had bad injectors. Replaced them, ran like a raped ape. Started doing some **** to it, and blam.. Toasty out of no where. I was driving down the street, and smoke started pouring out of the ducts. Made it to my driveway and watched it burn up.. Never knew what the cause was.

sorry for the lack of progress.. i live in michigan. the pics above of the car being lowered all the way are on an 80 degree day. this morning i woke up for work around 4:00 am. only to find 2" of snow already on the ground, and more was coming down. i seriously hate this ******* state. 70 one day, snow the next.

I need to move out west or something. Worked for JTP, im pretty sure he grew up like 20 minutes away from me in Vicksburg Mi. so he prolly knows what its like. lol

Utah's weather is just as inexplicable, but your area gets colder. Vegas is a nice alternative as far as climate goes.

my ******* headlight switch problem is pissing me off to no end. My harness is completley toast, now the headlight motors were smoking, and i pretty much had to pull the battery to get all the havok to stop.

this is really making me lose motivation on this car, ive never had such an annoying electrical problem in my life. i cant even drive the car now and im stuck driving around my pile of **** altima.

Im honestly considering selling this car just because of the bullshit.

Does anyone have a complete harness for sale? mine is not going to be salvagable.

I need to put in some o.t. or pray for good profit share checks so I can get some Teins under me. Would have some now but Lewis Co Sheriffs wrote me a ticket for no proof of ins... fought it, didnt have it on me and thats all the judge cared.

+1 to you nismo, diggin that stance!

Buckey, you son of bitch... I just found my side marker wires were all fucked up from when i switched fenders. no one ******* caught this!? you're all a bunch of *****.. im going to take a wild stab in the dark and say this has to be the cause of all my problems.. seeing as it always blew when hitting bumps or cornering hard..

I just have to get a new harness now. Until then, ill just drive it in the day time.

Im getting a little lazy with working on the wiring problem. I know for sure that i need a new harness now though..

Also picked up an 86 SE duckbill spoiler. So if any one wants a minty tII spoiler, get at me.

Saving up money for a better daily driver too. Im tired of having to stunt a busted altima all day. Looking for an Integra GSR or something along that..
