wassup RedlineN5thgear, its been a while... well, seems to me you might had fried some fuses or something. now you mentioned that you just yanked it out? YOu might have crossed over wires or ground out something... check your main fuse, ignition fuse, etc... I'm sure it might just be some kind of blown fuse. I hope it is...

ok, heres what was happening. the radio that was in was a POS and didnt werk. it wasnt factory, but it was worse than factory. lol. whoever installed it just slid the wired coming from the radio(bare end wires)into the adapters. my friend is charging my batterie as we speak. there is alot of splicing and what-not in there and i dont know my electrics in this car(or any other) i am about to install my new clutch, but alot of use that will be if the bat is dead~! how do i find/fix mah problem. thxz inertia
ps, no, i didnt RIP it out, i disconected each wire with as much finesse as apossible when im in a temperr tantrum. the last time i had i temper tantrum i kicked off my muffler.

You need a circuit tester and you'll need to turn off the car. Start poking wires that you think can be the cause of the drain on the battery. It doesn't sound like fun but its the only best way to know where the drain is coming from. It doesn't seem easy nor fun but maybe sometimes the door is shut but the door light still flashes on, or a bad starter just sitting and draining the battery over night. Little things like that can cause a major drain. but yea, start poking wires that you think is related to your charging system. Hope this helps out a little.
