First start problem, sparked then burned wire to starter
Okay so the second I touched the positive to the battery the wire from the ignition to the starter sparked and i heard a clicking noise almost like a fuel injector firing...I didn't attempt to crank it I dont want to hurt it any more.

I did, and everything is perfect to this diagram (minus inhibitor relay)

I grounded the ecu, but there were no grounds in the ignition switch.

by the way this is what happened with my starter situation. I went to get the solenoid repaired at RZ starter and alternators and I got there and he plugged positive and ignition and the damn starter ran like a well oiled machine. yep. then i went back to kragen on my way home still mystified how it wasn't working yesterday and he tested an it was PASS on everything. I made him do it two more times and it was perfect. So, why didn't it work in the first place? i have no idea. i really have no idea.

possible ^^^^ also could be a burnt fusible link or a bad positive or negative wire on the battery since they hook directly to the starter. if your using the old battery terminal wires i'd replace them. then check the two fusible links right by the battery.
