I just installed spec clutch and fly wheel in my blacktop and hooked everything back up, but now the car wont turn over. When I put the key in and turn it to the on position, everything comes on but when I turn the key all the way over nothing happens.. There are no noises made or anything except for the fuel pump pumping. I don't know what it could be because everything is connected.

power to the starter?

I'd double check all the connection in the lower harness. Also, double check all the fuse inside the engine bay.

Make sure the main power cable is hooked to the starter as well as the small one prong clip on the starter solenoid. If they are connected grab a thick gauge wire and touch the power cable post with one end and the other to the solenoid connection. Just make sure its in neutral when you do this. If it turns over then you know the signal is not getting to the solenoid. Let us know after you try this and if thats the case I can walk you through how to diagnose that.

Check out the clutch sensor down by the clutch pedal, thats most likely your problem. You probably broke the little rubber thing that pushes the sensor in to start the car, you can just wrap the empty hole in a few layers of tape and walla.

If the click switch to the relay is broken as mentioned above you can easily bypass that by removing the relay and jumping the two connections. This however will allow anyone else that drives your car to start it without pressing in the clutch. However its a common problem on our cars to have problems with that relay so its becoming pretty common.

However it seems strange you would break that while changing your clutch.

did you happen to disconnect the crank position sensor harness? However, I'm not too sure if a disconnected crank position sensor would totally prevent a car from starting
