Starter doesnt turn over, doesnt even click

So my starter wont turn over, I hear no click indicating that its bad. Could I just have a loose connection somewhere? Or can this still be a dead starter?

could be a dead starter or your clutch switch thing. I once had this happen in my n/a and basically I took a screw driver and touched both terminals of the starter and if it makes its noise then more then likely is the clutch switch....a small plug over your clutch...I had to hotwire that in. Once you do that then you dont have to put the clutch in to start it.

check all your connections, make sure that it is mounted tight. Remember when taking off your starter to disconnect the battery first, also when putting it back on. Take your starter to a local auto parts store to have them test it. Most likely your starter is no good.
