R33 Not Starting. Help Needed

[Smurf]

Hi all,

My car's not starting. I have had this problem on and off for a little while. I replaced the battery around 3 months ago so that is not the problem.

It will start and if I turn it off for say 2 minutes it just won't start again. It sort of flickers (the lights on the dash board) though the starter motor really isn't turning at all.

Any suggestions.

Cheers

Probably stuffed starter motor. Last time it happened in one of my previous old car. Took it to auto elec who clean it for $70, then it's running fine till the day I sold the "old friend". Worse case scenario would be buying a new starter motor or get a 2nd hand one in working condition from a wrecker.

as said check your starter motor, best way to test it his tap it with a bar or something then try start your car, if so its the starter motor..or check the wire that connects to the starter motor it could be lose and not making a good connection
