2G 1996 GSX spark issue

[Ethan_gsx]

Have a 1995 Eclipse GSX, car turns over for around 30 seconds before starting. Gets good fuel pressure but doesn’t get any spark on any of the plugs. But eventually will start, which makes me think something is making the plugs not get spark until a certain time. Any ideas? Has a turbo timer, not sure if that matters. Mod list added for help

How do you know its not getting spark during this 30 seconds or cranking?

^^ Was my thought too. Could be fuel, could be timing, possibly. I would check everything to make sure all is secured. Check your fuel pressure, do a spark test. Maybe check compression while you're at it. Cover all the basic stuff first since that seems to be where problems start.

If the turbo timer is plug and play, remove it just to eliminate that as a potential cause. You can leave the wire that’s goes to the ebrake switch.

Possibly fuel pressure is not being maintained (for hours/days) after engine is turned off so takes that long to build it up again. Or compression is bad but after 30 seconds it builds up enough to start. I question that there is no spark in all cylinders (how does he know, is he guessing?) - it's pretty unlikely that spark suddenly appears after 30 seconds - I don't see how that could happen.
