wuz up guyz, i`swaped engines.`i got the car with a cressida engine 7-MGTE when i had just bought it. well the i got a 7mgte from my cousins wrecked mk3 and put it on mines. well i cant start the car, the selenoid hits but not enough to make the starter move the engine. so i just got a cable and put it straight from the selenoid to the + of the battery and it started like that perfect. but i cant start it with tghe switch. could it be the cable that goes from the selenoid to the ignition switch? also the back and the side lights dont turn off only when i disconect the batt.. i want to drive my baby before i sell it... P.S. its gona be for sale when im done..
