Hi guys, awesome forum really good advice. new to posting, but been checking this forum out for a while now. I have some issues with this car, like..... hard starting, only will start wot! Cel lighting up with p0300 and p0301, p0302 ,p0303, p0304, p0305,p0306 , not all on but varies. Only comes on at constant speed of 65 mph or up! Abs light on, with that said horn still works, steering wheel buttons don't cause i changed the radio, but didn't work with original radio. Definitely needs struts all around... just put all 4 tires on, has a cone spectre filter, just the filter, because of this set up my ecm just hangs no mounting for it just loose, so definitely needs fixing! Brakes shake with higher speed, but no steering wheel shake? Needs rear pads changed, door does this weird thing when car is on and door is open it like shuts electric off and resets radio??? needs a good tune up!!! So with all that said.... body and transmission has about 203,xxx miles engine was replaced with one with 145,xxx miles 5,000 miles ago! Fluids look good not missing any fluid but definitely needs changing. Any help would be awesome thanks in advance
 


Holy smokes. Paragraphs are your friend.

Congrats on the 98. Slick looking ride. Post some pics.
 
Give it a new set of stock irridium plugs and a lifetime set of wires and see what you get. Clean the MAF with MAF cleaner, clean all battery connections and make sure they are tight.

ABS light could be a bad wire harness or bad wheel bearing. Jack up the front and push/pull on the tire at 12 and 6 o'clock. If you have play, then suspect that bearing.

You can get a harness that will allow the steering wheel buttons to work with the aftermarket radio.

Check to see if your MAF fuse is blown.
 
Thanks for the advice! Definitely need to check suspension and tb clean and maf...... That's my next project....and major tune up! I've been busy making it 100 % road worthy. Just did the famous water on floor fix, really dirty in there!
