Orange spark means low spark. Thats why it wont start. Look up symptoms for orange spark in google. Its something electrical though more than likely.

Ok, change fuel pump still the same but when I put fuel through the throttle body it will start and stay on..... other than that it wont start. Any ideas?

No more orange spark... all white but still nothing.
New ECU. Z32 Filter....LMK

I hope you are running MAP+IAT and not MAF.

Cause you have some massive vacuum leaks without the charge pipes and intake hooked up.

are your belts ungodly loose or is it just an optical illusion?

try starting it with the MAF hooked up just put the Throttle body Charge pipe on so you can also hookup the IACV and slap the MAF on the end of it and give it a shot
