I recently swapped the motor from a 93 talon tsi into a 92 gsx for reasons of the chassis. Well everything is bolted up and plugged in. Well car just cranks and will not catch.

The mods. 20g turbo with a 3in gm maf and translator. The fuel pump is stock but it re wired straight to battery and battery is relocated to trunk. Is there something i could be missing?? Motor ran when it was in the 93. So im guessing its electrical. If anyone can shed some light on this problem let me know. Thanks.

Narrowed it down to no fuel at injectors. Fuel is getting past filter but car wont start. Timing is good spark is good. Tested with btake cleanr and car starts but then dies a couple seconds later. Any help would be good.
 
Well if you use actual new fuel line it will be fine. Doesn't just split or every car that uses this idea would fail which they don't. Did it on my first one. I'd appriciate it if you keep to yourself if you don't have ideas to help. Just frustrated when it could be something so simple. You can call bs all you want, doesn't help.

Fuel problem fixed it holds pressure when trying to start. Just drops off once pump is killed, which I found CAN be normal for 1g afpr. Motor is flooding itself, found out on another forum that it could be the coolant sensor for the ecu. Checked it and the wiring is weak and rat nested. Rewiring tomorrow will update when done.
