thanks for the reply, i'll definitly check that out, but i hear the clicking in the fuse box in the engine bay, passenger side. maybe it's an echo, but i don't recall the car having an alarm on it. based on me not having a clicker for the alarm.

thank you :) my S13 is my second love, my first was my 97 mitsu eclipse with the 420a...i learned off that car and boosted it with help, but i transfered that knowledge into my 240 and it's better than ever...it's an attachment and almost an extension of myself. i look at it and see myself.
