I have an S14 and im the only one who can turn on my car. I have to turn the key in all the way and hold it there while playing with it in order for the car to turn on. Lately, even Im having some difficulty turning it on.

I am pretty sure I just need to get a new iginition lock/cylinder assy with a new key to fix it, but I just wanted ppl’s input before i start looking around for one. If thats the problem, would an S13 assembly work?

Thanks,  
Nima
