Default Car won't turn over (help please)

S13 with a blacktop. The battery has juice as the fans and lights come on. When I turn the key I hear a click trunk area but the car won't turn over. The battery has been relocated to the trunk, but I haven't had any problems with it before. Maybe the starter? It hasn't been acting funny.

Thanks in advance,
Patrick

Thanks for the replies. I figured it out tonight. Craig told me about a wire on the passenger side of the engine that can come unclipped during an oil change.... Well, it unclipped itself yesterday. Anyway, the car is running great and the clutch is broke-in.

its the starter trigger wire. most people that do SR swaps and dont know 100% will put on the KA lower harness (as you should) but wont switch over to the Silvia style trigger wire plug. the american one works... but it falls off.

patrick gimme a call and come up to the new shop so i can go ahead and put a silvia plug nd on for you... besides, we need to talk business anyways.....

When I first saw this thread I knew exactly what had happened. It is a pain in the butt when it does fall off, but it is a good security measure if you leave the car parked in a place where you don't feel secure about leaving it.
