So after following the FAQ troubleshoot
I'm still having trouble getting my Sims 3 base game and expansions to install via Origin. It downloads but it never opens up installshield wizard to complete the process. I even did a system restore...

Yes, because I did every troubleshoot that's posted...chose to repair the base game but as soon as it finishes downloading and I attempt to install it when it finishes its in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts folder instead if the Origin games one. Plus it's not properly installed, I try to open the base game from Origin but it's still saying install when it should say play. I deleted every CC file I have on my comp, have 1.5TB so hard drive space isn't an issue. Should I just call CS before it gets worse? I haven't recieved a message stating I reached my limit yet.
Did you try a clean reinstall ? You can contact CS once you do run into the error.
Follow the instructions here: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_Uninstall and here: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-3/Help-Guide-All-in-one-fix-except-hardware-issues-PC-only/m-p/734448#M36281 where it says Delete game installers
Manually delete everything if above method does not work: https://help.ea.com/article/manually-uninstalling-the-sims-3
Make sure everything Sims is gone from your computer before reinstalling
If the game still shows in your Uninstaller Menu afterwards, you can use CCleaner to get rid of those.
