Default Wonder why my car is not starting help needed

i have a 93 honda del sol with a jdm b16a motor i wonder why my car isnt starting after changing brand new water pump,new timming belt,new head gasket,new starter,new oil,new fluids,new axels and my clutch is kinda gone but im changing that soon this week but some of the people i know told me that it might be the flywheel because at a night of street racing one of my friend was racin with my car and burn the **** out of my clutch but i wonder if the flywheel is the problem that its not starting but it cranks though and i did drove around while my clutch slips but after changing these parts than it wont start. what can be the problem?

First of all.....don't street race.
Second of all. Welcome to Honda-Tech. Make sure to familurize yourself with the guildlines of the forum at the top of the page.

Now onto your problem, So does it crank now or not? One thing to check is if you accidentally knocked wires off. Like your grounds, any leads, or another other electrical connections you could have touched. The clutch should not affect your ability to start the car at all, just the ability for the car to go forward.

Cheers and enjoy your stay at Honda-Tech.

P.S. This, ".", is called a period, when you use one it makes it easy for others to understand you.

yea it cranks but seems like the starter not reaching onto the flywheel and the sounds comes from the starter and i brought it to a mechanic shop but they telling me its the starter than when i remove my old one theres like a crack at the end of the shell of the starter so than i bought a brand new one than still the same problem the starter spinning but not starting. yea but ima double check the wires again just in case. but thinking of any other problems? dont you think its the flywheel?

Well you just wrote that you did a t-belt, right? Have you checked the timing?

Pop start it if it sounds like the starter is not engauging... that would be a idea. also check for spark, fuel, the main things for a motor to run.
