Electrical Short

Not too long ago my brother bought a used 2001 eclipse gt (3.0L) Gerat condition except for this random electrical problem. Every once and a while when you go to start it, the whole thing will die. If you jiggle the battery cables it will start right up. So I replaced both terminals and the negitive cable, no luck.
Yesterday it acctually started fine and then while driving ALL electrical parts died. Stereo, AC, turn signals. Hit a bump, came back on.
Anyway, I'm lost on this, is there any one relay that would cause this? Altenator?
There isn't any corosion on any of the terminals. Just the neg battery cable was really bad. Replaced that with a 2ga cable.
Any help would be great. Thanks
