Hello everyone, just purchased a gt3 rs to rebuild the car will crank slowly and then it won’t crank just clicks. It seems like it’s having a hard time turning over.
brand new battery, fuel pump fuse is good, no airbags deployed so pyro fuse is good. What should I check?

These details are very important to help determining why the car is acting the way it's acting.
If it's a flood car,perhaps one of the components that are belt driven may be almost locked up and the battery doesn't have enough amperage to turn the engine over. Or perhaps there's water that got inside the engine...
Or perhaps you have a starter on its way out and can't turn the engine fast enough to start...
Or corrosion at the starter connection,or a bad engine ground...

Start with the beginning : meaning the highlighted quote. What does that mean? Is it a salvage car,was it flooded,was it in an accident?

the car was in a accident not a flood.

can you turn the engine by hand? remove the drivebelt and try that first. how's the oil looking?
