Don't replace it, bypass it. Save you the trouble of replacing it again next year. And the year after.

forgive me for not finding the threads with the HOW-TO on bypassing the relay.

Seem like alotta people is having the same problem as me, car wont turn at all, but when i unplug the acc relay (from the fuse box on the driver side inside the engine bay) and plug it back in the car starts a few times before it acts up again and doesnt start. also there is no relay in my box for the N&P clutch slot in the fuse box.

Btw what is the acc relay for? b/c seem like thats the issue with the connector itself b/c when i took the relay out, the part that connects to the relay in the fuse box the connector is yellowish/burnt looking color, but the wires from underneth looks ok(not burnt).

So far i replaced the relays, and starter relay, starter on the way, but doubt it's that now.

thanks for the reply's

quoted from the other links nismo provided..

"also check your starter relay. Mine was bad even though i changed and rebuilt the starter. Wasted $160. I took off the relay and used a jumper plug bten the wires to connect it. Right now, my car starts w/o having to step on the clutch. Turn the key and start."

How would i exactly re-route this and whats a jumper plug?(again pics and diagrams are always good), so i can 100% rule out the clutch switch, esp since i got a new starter relay.

I'm not going to check those posts you listed because I'm too drunk to read.

Unplug the relay. Take the two larger wires in the same plug, black/white and black/yellow, and connect them together. Leave the other plug loose. Drive car.

Well the other starter from sr20store came in and didnt work, again still only starts a few time after i unplug and plug a relay. (the acc one or starter relay) also did a 12v test from that clip that goes to the starter, and found out that when it does start there's 12v's going threw that clip and when it doesnt there is no volts going threw. So most definatly its a bad wire somewhere.

if you want to bypass all of the bullshit just put one wire to a +12V source (I used the end of my battery relocation wire) and hook the other end up to a switch, or button. now with another wire hook one end up to the other terminal on the switch/button, and hook the other end up to the starters 3rd middle plug. it should be a spade connector size, and you can actually use a spade connector. ill attatch a video to show how it works if you are curious. but to start the car you still need the key in the on position otherwise it would just crank.
