crash n' burn

I'm about to throw this whole damn car in the trash.
Did the 5spd swap on my ka24e(right? ha, I was bored and had all the parts), everything is as it should be. Did the clutch interlock bypass and the reverse lights are hooked up right. I go to turn it over, and the starter is just spinning. I figure, ok, battery might not have enough gusto to energize the solenoid and kick the gear out.
/puts battery on charger, tests good (or so they say at O'reilly and holds 12.7V
Same issue.
Soo, I figure maybe the solenoid is dead and go buy a new starter to swap it in. Same. Fucking. Issue.
I've done my fair share of 5spd swaps in the past with no issue. Clutch is Exedy stg1 OEM because its not a racecar, new stock flywheel, dust plate is installed, everything was torqued twice over before installing the trans. Everything just looks right and I am at a loss for what holding this thing up.
