Default Starting issue...

So I've read about a dozen threads on the NATS antenna going out these cars but i don't think that's the same issue I am having as it seems other people are able to get their motors to turn over, just not start

My issue is over the past couple days I try to start the engine an nothing is happening. Battery seems fine and I am not getting crank whatsoever for about a minute. All of a sudden after 25+ times turning the key the engine fires right up. I can run the car for as long as needed, turn it off, and it'll take another minute of trying to get the car started before it'll fire..

Any ideas? It's an 06 6mt with 80k. I'm kinda fed up with this thing..

No, I'm used to seeing a CEL when codes come up, and nothing is lit up... I have a scan gauge at home. I'll check tonight.

It appears to be the clutch sensor switch. I give it a swift kick and started right up a few times.
