Before I start, I've researched this topic for awhile an have tried several things so far, seems to be a common problem. But I've tried everything on all of the threads I've seen. Just would like some extra input. Thanks in advance.

So I have a 93 s13 with a red top sr20det swap. Has jim wolf ecu, stock internals, stock t-25, nismo 555 injectors, z32 maf, blah blah blah. Went on vacation in June for a week or so an when i came back the egi relay was buzzing an car would not start. I have charged battery, replaced terminals, replaced the connector to my fuel pump which was corroded, walboro 255 pump, I've replaced both relays that we're buzzing. The egi relay an the one right next to it. Put a new fuel filter in, new spark plugs, tested spark. Just will not start up. I got it to run once a little bit when I sprayed starter fluid in. But ran bad an shutoff. Any help or advice I'd appreciate it! Thanks guys!

is your car still not starting?
I had several problems with relays, SRs are horrible electrical hogs and crappy self wiring will lead you to tears if your not savvy with a voltage meter.
1. Recently built engine and the EGI started buzzing and I found out that 10amp fuse under drivers side was blown, I replaced and the car started and buzzing went away after a couple of starts.
2. My Green EGI/fuel relay was going bad once, I had to tap it with the handle of the screwdriver and it would work, I replaced it from another Nissan in junk yard and it worked like new.
3. I had shorts in the relay box, I had a real chop job done from a friend doing swap and I had to use a half a roll of electrical tape before shorts stopped causing havoc on car.

hope this helps
