I recently put up a forum about my 2009 Manual Transmission RX8 R3 not starting.
I've done bunch research on it and I replaced the Ignition Coils that I thought was the cause today since it was a bit old.
So after the replacement, I've plugged a jump box to my battery and tried the: "Remove Fuel Pump, Press down on gas and crank for 8 seconds and repeat" method.
I got it to work once for like split 2 seconds, but then it would not start again after...
So is there other methods should I be trying or is there anything else I can do to solve this problem?
My car is manual transmission and I've always (at least most of the time) warmed up the engine enough before I shut it off and granny shifted the car around 2000-3000 until the engine was warm enough before I drove it.
Any advice would help at this point, I'm going to try and unplug the spark plugs tomorrow and crank to see if anything else changes or might replace the battery to see if that's the cause. (But I'm not sure since I had the battery plugged the whole time today when I was doing the cranking deflood method.)

Here is a video link to what my car sounds like and how it behaved during deflooding:
Once again, any help would be appreciated thank you so much!

I have the same problem, engine cranks over but the starter relay is clicking rapidly. It's noy the battery, replaced witha new one but still same.

The engine is turning AND the relay is clicking at the same time? Are you sure it's the starter relay that's clicking? Both of those happening doesn't super make sense.

Sounds like it's cranking at rate - so it's flooded or starved for fuel. Any codes being thrown?
