Here's pretty much the rundown of what's going on...

-Bought a running 94+ redtop and swapped it into 91 240sx hatch.-Tried to start it and only heard single clicks from relays.-Used a voltmeter at the starter and it read 12v while off, on, and on with brights, if any of that even makes a difference.-Push started the car and everything ran fine and dandy.-Took starter to Autozone and they said it was a good starter. We even tested it quite a few times.-I also relocated the battery to the hatch and ran 2 gauge wire into the stock 4 gauge wire for the power clips. Then ran a separate 4 gauge starter wire from the end of the power wire to the starter. Pretty much how it was originally I believe.-Autozone guys said to try to jump the clutch pedal trigger to see if it is just a bad trigger but haven't done this one yet.

If anyone has any advice please share. I've already gone through the harness looking for open connections and such so I'd really hope to be able to avoid all that mess again.

Thanks in advance,Zack
