forgot to add this info
when car is cold it kinda misfire when i go up in rpm when it did run
and once warm up it what to shut off on Idle misfires more
and IAC vavle that does idle is all way out and TPS is all the way to one side to keep this motor running when it did run kinda .. :(

it crank with no spark now
and when it does start it misfires a little and run rich when it does start
Timming is 100% on right
and my coils are not getting any power it looks like? so i found all the wire from ign chip to ECU they all look good
now i just cant find the 12v and other wires to coils to power them to see if they are cut or something if it warm or hot it looks like it doent what to start at all but cold i got it to start 1 time

CHECK THE COIL PACK AND THE COILS. THE PACKS GO BAD ON THOSE ON A REGULAR BASIS. I HAVE HAD TO CHANGE 2 OF MINE DUE TO OVERHEATING OF THE COIL PACKS. ALSO DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND UPGRADE TO THE Z32 IGNITOR CHIP. ITS SMALLER, EASIER TO FIND, AND ITS AN UPGRADED DESIGN TO THAT OF THE RB20. THIS IS A LINK TO THE WRITE UP: Addenum to RB20/25/26 Igniter swap to VG30/Z32/J30 Igniter: RB20 / RB25 / RB26 Forum: Nissan Forums / Infiniti Forums - NICOclub (http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/251366)
HOPE THIS HELPS. ALSO CHECK FOR MAJOR BOOST LEAKS AND THE MAF SENSOR. CHECK THE ECM CODES, AS THEY CAN POINT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

ok Does anyone know what they run for the Z32 IGN Chip
and what coils could i use on Rb20 Z32 to?
well can anyone help me find where the Main power wire to coils go's maybe and is there a relay for the coil 12v somewhere

check coolant temp sensor
CLEAN MAF with MAF cleaner
Check wire harness for breaks
clean IACV
check for vac/boost leaks

WELL FOR THE IGNITOR CHIP RUN A Z32 IGNITOR CHIP. ITS A BASIC REPIN OF THE CONNECTORS AND A JUMPER WIRE. THIS THREAD SHOWS YOU LITERALLY EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO DO.

AS FOR THE COILPACKS, YOU WOULD HAVE TO FIND RB20 PACKS. Z32 PACKS DO NOT WORK.
SuperSpark Coil Packs - Nissan Skyline R32 GTS-T (RB20DET) - ModYourCar.com - Car Accessories | Car Parts | Performance Parts | Aftermarket Parts (http://www.modyourcar.com.au/superspark-coil-packs--nissan-skyline-r32-gtst-rb20det-p5361)
THE COIL PACKS HAVE 3 WIRES TO EACH OF THEM. ONE IS A GROUND, ONE IS A 12V POSITIVE, AND THE OTHER IS A SIGNAL WIRE FROM THE IGNITOR CHIP. THE COILS SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE 12V ON THE +, AND VOLTAGE TO THE SIGNAL ONLY WHEN THE PACK IS SUPPOSED TO FIRE.
THERE IS NO RELAY TO THE PACKS. ONLY 12V TO THE POSITIVE SIDE AND SIGNAL.

i put money on the cas being bad or not timed correctly(try removing it spining it a couple of times and follow the ignition timing procedure in the fsm.)

Ok todays update
Got New Used CAS tested works perfect i can hear injectors clicking
ign chip was tested on another RB20det works
ECU was retested and Works perfect
timing is spot on
Vacuum line was all replaced and checked FSM Make shur they are all hooked up correct
all piping is nice and sealed no leaks
and still wont run
Cranks and cranks i can smell fuel and it backfired becouse of fuel
So U think replacing my Engine harness and complete rewiring it for s13 since the old owner i guess didnt do it right...

Are you sure it gets spark? try taking a spark plug out hooking it up touch it to the block and crank it, you should see a spark.
