Meh? The 2G N/T is quite a bit different than the 1G N/T. The ignition system is pretty difficult to mess up because it consists of just the coil, wires, and plugs... no igniter like your car, just direct coil ignition.
 
well i got a crankshaft from slow boy racing, eagle rods, wisesco low compress pistons 8:8:1 .40 over,stainless steel valves, crower stage two cams, crower spring and retianers, obx cam gears, spec stage 3 clutch.
yeah wont start and fuel is going up but before car would have trouble starting because of injectors that could be it but its pumping gas.
 
It sounds like your timing is off or possibly a bad crank position sensor. When my timing belt skipped, I had the same problem as your describing.

So it sounds like you checked the basic stuff, the next thing to do check your timing, then test your sensors.
 
if you know for a fact your getting fuel pressure and spark at the coil pack, then make sure your getting spark at all four coil points, because a faulty cam or crank sensor would effect that.

so is the car turning but not firing or is it no even cranking over at all?
