headers.I have the car all put together. I tried to start the car nothing, fuel pump cycles and put out 45psi but no spark. put timing light on the wire the nissan manual tells you to check nothing. Pulled a coil and plug and ground that out still not spark. Checked all my grounds seem good. Where do I begin checking?

Thank you for your advise greatly appreciated. Once she starts it is off to get tuned

You maybe out of timing a bit. Did you turn engine over a few times manually before push button start? Make sure your not way off.

See P0340

Doesn't take much before it doesn't let you start.
