lol, oh ya
it's a 1996, ka24de, about 109k miles on it. it did start back up again, after i had my foot on the gas all the way down for about 5-10 seconds.

it could be your ground wire because i had about that same problem and I took my car up to a stereo west and had them put on a better ground solved that problem.
