Are you using the right starter? Do you have spark plugs in? I had this one cat that said the same thing after building his crap, said the starter wouldn't catch, and his stuff reeked of fuel, he forgot to put in plugs, so the motor just spinned and spinned, dumbass~!

Are you sure you are getting spark and fuel?? Do you hear the pump come on when you turn the car to on?? Does it pressurize fuel in the rail??? Check to see if you are getting spark. Sounds like the dizzy or ignitor might be going bad.

its the same as a civic/h22 swap nothing special

and take your starter to autozone have them test it

it sounds like, TO ME, your starter solenoid is bad.

while the starter is out look at the flywheel teeth for any missing or severly damaged ones.

not enough room for ac or power steering, not to mention you should see how low the oil pan and collector is to the ground, even at stock height

(scroll down a lil ways he took a pic of it underneath)

i'm not flaming I just envy this setup, I'd almost like to hear its not possible so I dont feel as bad about my d16
