Default starting issue after battery relocalisation

hi everybody!
i got a starting issue...i relocated the battery in the trunk
i used subwoofer 0/1 gauge wiring(might be my issue)

i tryed instaĺling a brand new battery last week..i did not use my car during the week,and yesterday i started the car with no
problem...went to garage for alignment,when i shut off
the car,was not able to restart it...i need to have it boosted to start it up...
this i did...

installed a another ground wire on starter/motor block .
i used a 0/1 awg subwoofer from battery (in the trunk) to the front of the car,and divide in 2 4awg wire(starter and fusebox)

thanks,hope you someone will be able to help me
to solve my problem

Even a near-motorcycle size Odyssey battery under the hood will start the S2000 and is a popular battery for those wanting to drop every gram of weight from the car they can. But cable lengths there are relatively short. What voltages do you get when you activate the starter? At the battery? At the starter?

Any electrical draws when the ignition is off? Is it possible the battery is not charging?
