Starter went bad in my s13 SR20 last week. I replaced it with a new mishimoto oem replacement starter.

The issue I'm having is: when I turn over the key all you hear is the solenoid click 1 time. (Lights come on and everything so I am getting power to the starter)
The car wil start if it is jumped off. I am loosing voltage somehow and it's just enough so the starter won't turn over.

I have checked/cleaned all the grounds and even replaced one. Battery has been charged and tested results: good
Note:battery relocated to rear

I'm dumb founded on what it could be

Yeah, unfortunately it sounds like your new starter may be jamming. Have you tried to release the starter motor by tapping on it while cranking the engine?
