Car won't start (KA24E) - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

My car has been sitting for awhile (2 years) and I finally have time to finish bringing it back to life, but I can't get it started.

I've replaced:
-Distributor + Cap + Rotor
-Oil Pump
-Timing Chain Guides
-Spark Plugs
-Fuel Filter

Initially the car got parked after I threw an oil pressure light. Found chunks of the timing chain guides in my oil pan and the pump was shot. Did a tune up along the way and found my distributor got fucked up, so that got replaced. Then did a tune up.

I've triple checked my timing. I'm positive the timing is correct. Verified that I have spark. Also verified the fuel pump is working (getting fuel at least past fuel filter).

I still need to get a compression gauge and verify that.

What am I missing here? What else could be my problem?
