KA help ka24de wont start

Hey zilvians heres the problem i have a 96 s14 with a silvia conversion. The engine is a stock ka24de with 64,xxx mi. on it mods are intake apexi filter, alluminum koyorad, greddy exhaust headers, and full exhaust kit.
I had not used the car due to the fact that i had crashed about 4 months ago and was low on cash now i started working on it and changed the spark plugs (yes gapped to spec.) i plugged in the cables that where unplugged fron the lights and fan (after i had crashed and took all the broken parts off.) but the car will not start when i put the key in, the dash panel lights do come on but the car will not start. After going thrue everything i do not know what to do. Any help from all you guys would be greatly aprreciated. Thank you.

Have you checked your fuses?

Do you hear your fuel pump when you turn it to on or any relays clicking?


also greddy makes a ka manifold?

1. Does it crank??? if no then check battery, starter, wiring.

2. Does it have gas in it???

3. Check for spark in all cylinders while cranking the motor, check if the fuel pump turns on.

4. Check for unpluged/ cut wires such as MAF Sensor, ignitor coil, ALL GROUNDS

Your problem should be somewhere in there

yea id say start, if your battery is really weak at least u will get a slow crank or clicking, make sure the starter wiring goes to the write terminal on the starter
after you get it to crank over and if it does start, if check and see if you hear the fuel pump come on, then see if u have spark, hold ur coil wire lead and see if u feel a spark, let me know if u get it to turn over

if you dont hear you fuel pump that car isnt going to start.
my buddy had that probelm with his honda..we did his head gasket.and we never heard the fuel pump kick on.you may have a short some where. a bad ground. and like someone else said.
greddy makes a KA manifold?...
lol..do you have the clutch pushed in?

Fuck is a silvia conversion on an S14?

Maybe that's the problem, you put some shit that doesn't exist on your car, now it's mad at you.

ooooooooooh I know what could be the problem!!!! this has happened to 2 out of 4 of the 240's I've owned. on the clutch pedal there is a part that pushes in the clutch sensor button. On that part the inside is rubber......that rubber part gets old and falls out so when you put the clutch in, the car doesn't see it as you putting the clutch in. So check that.
