Car wont start need some advice

Ive have my fc for about three months and I love every second of it. The other day it stopped working. It just wouldn't start, I was getting power only sometimes when I turned the key and then it would just make a clunk noise. So the next day I jumped started it and it seemed to work fine so I figured it was just a dead battery. I got it home parked it for a few hours and then it wouldn't start again. Put in a new battery still wouldn't start. Next day I got the alternator checked and it was fine and then I got the starter completely rebuilt. Still will not start and just makes a clunk noise. Any ideas? I don't know too much about cars although I just changed my clutch and it went fine. I'm at a wall and need some help. Sorry about the long narrative...

The rewire, I had a similar problem with mine, so i put a switch adn push start button. My car will have to have the key in on, but to start it you'll have to press the button.

So you are saying I should rewire the ignition or something? Sorry I'm not as car literate as I'd like to be....
