SR20det random failure to start, starter clicking but not engaging.

Looking for some insight from you guys. I've got a 95 Zenki with a Blacktop SR20DET. For the past 2 weeks ive been having trouble with getting it to start. Intermittently the car will just click when the key is turned to the on position. I have replaced the starter for a brand new ISIS unit, replaced the fuses and also replaced the ground for the starter with a brand new line.

Some situations that can often cause the car to start, after the key fails to start it first time.

- Disconnecting the negative terminal and reconnecting it sometimes works.
- Wiggling the starter ground sometimes works.
- Pushing the car and then popping the clutch, then stopping and using the key worked (mysteriously)
- Wiggling the fusebox sometimes works.
- Waiting for 5 minutes sometimes works.

Basically, I'm all out of ideas, every time I think i've got it fixed, the car will leave me stranded.

Picture of the car for attention:



Thanks in advance!
