Need more info and maybe some pics to make sure the terminals were installed correctly on the starter.

Does the car get any power at all if you turn the key?
If not it could be a loose ground terminal, corroded battery terminals, of check your battery with a multimeter to see the voltage because you battery could be sulfaded.

Turn the key and tell us exactly what you try and what you get.

Could also be the S connector on the starter (smaller wire between the 2 larger terminal cables) this wire is what gets the power from the key start position and tells the starter to start working. Very comman on all cars they get loose or ever widen so much they fall off, just crush it alittle if this happens.

Like I said need alot more info
