Simple thoughts but what is the condition of your battery like any corrosion around the - and + terminal pole connectors and are they tight, water level and + pole fused link not blown?

To the positive clamp battery is fine.

Sounds like he blew the fusible link. Here's the part replacement number: 24380-8991A

I'm going to take this opportunity to beg you to get the car looked at by a professional before investing any money.

Thanks Reggie he said it ran but had an engine noise and someone blue that fuse now the engine is locked.
But I'm leaning on electrical problem because it says key system error and just clicks.
He's calling that engine locked

He also called it rare, and tampered with the odometer.

Diagnostics are smart - Taking the word of a shady seller is not.

This guy is a bonafide clown.

I'd definitely get it inspected by a proper shop before making a $3,500 mistake a $10,000 mistake.

Agreed. I pointed out some obvious red flags in the other thread and he shook them off. I would get as much information as I could about the car, including a professional opinion before spending another $7k.

When I was young I lost money on more than one car so trust me, better to find the bad news now than later when you're way into it. Not worried about money is fine, but it's still money...why waste it?

For that money, he could have picked up a dented 05 Corolla with 125k miles and been driving it for a month.

Go ahead, tell me why that's not a good idea.... I'll wait. ;)

Lovestruck, AZ. Don't tell me you never met a gorgeous woman who you knew instantly was all wrong for you, but you went there anyway. ;)

If you experience the click-no-start on an M56 that would otherwise run, that is usually the sign of a bad starter. Like many other Nissans with the same starter, the company issued an alternate part number for a rebuilt unit.
I'll go out on a limb and say they have finicky/defective starters, but who's say that is the only problem afflicting you?

On the other hand, a starter will have a tough time turning a locked engine and might in fact click and hum.

Since you have taken the car to a pro shop, save yourself the frustration and hopeful guesswork.
The mechanics can put a breaker bar onto the crank pulley bolt and attempt to turn it. If it turns, then there is a chance the car was misdiagnosed, the engine is in fact not locked and you'll be on your merry way after replacing the starter... or the battery terminal... or reprogramming your key, etc.
If it doesn't turn, the engine is locked and it's up to you to make the next move.

***
I'll leave you with this nugget:
(I am aware that it might fall where the advice offered by everyone else has fallen)

Do you see how much you fell in love with this car that doesn't even run despite all the BS you are discovering about it? Good!
Yes, we all love our cars and because of that, there is a very slim chance any sane M56 owner is giving up their car for $3,400 unless they are damn sure it's a hopeless case. Even more so if it is a unique Nismo edition.

I'm a little confused. I hope it didn't seem like I was trying to argue and justify to you whether this car was a bad deal or not. I think you've made it clear that money is no problem to you...or maybe your wife?

I was only trying to offer some pointers regarding your theories as to why the car would not start.

Sorry Edbway Your advice was very helpful.I have seem to come off as pushing off everyone's advice but its been quite opposite.
Everyone here has given me some insight on this project.

Don't replace that link until you know the engine will turn, you'll just blow up the new one if it's seized.

Turn the engine manually. You said you're handy, so that should be a simple one for ya.

THEN start worrying about getting power to the starter.

Engine dose not budge even with my foot on the bar and using the frame as leverage.Turns out vstar and others were
Right.The starter blew the fusable link because the motor is toast.
I decided to move it to a different shop over in Tampa fever racing that specializes in nissan performance.I replaced the fusable link.
