Has the car been sitting for some time? We had the same problem on a freebie car we got from a guy. It had sat for some time and it wouldn't run unless we sprayed starting fluid into the throttle body. The fuel pump was shot, for what reason I don't know. We pulled the pump out and tried to run it directly off a car battery and it didn't work. So we threw another pump in and it fired right up. So if your not getting fuel pressure I would check to see that your pump is in working condition.
 
Getting some fuel pressure and getting proper fuel pressure are two different things. My suggestion. Check to make sure that the injectors are being commanded on. If so, then check fuel pressure with A GAUGE.
 
Do you honestly believe that all four of your injectors went bad at exactly the same time? I hope not. There are a ton of things that can stop your car from running, including a bad or disconnected coolant temp sensor. Check voltage at the injectors first and we will go from there.
