It kind of sounds like your not getting any fuel pressure.

Welcome to NICO!

If the car cranks but doesnt start, then its not an alarm issue.

it make sense, but the fuel lines are ok, we checked them already, the sparkplugs got "wet"

The alarm system only interrupts the +12 from getting to starter relay so the starter won't do anything not even click in the solenoid.

If an expert technican can work on modern 2000+ Nissan { Maxima/Pathfinder} with the Factory Service Manual the Q is no more complicated. An OBD2 scan tool will be required!
