spinning noise (car won't start)
i just finished rebuilding my b16a head and put it on my gsr block. i plugged everything in, and tried to start it. it won't start oviously. it sounds like its just spinning. i checked the distributor and it was fine. i checked the starter and it was fine. batter was good. i don't know what to do. anyone help me out?
Batter was good? If you're using a baseball team to start your car, that might be your problem
Are there any other modifications to the car? I don't care if you think they're relevant or not, list them all.
Check for spark at all of the plugs. It should be white and strong. If one of them isn't, replace that plug and wire. If none of them are, replace your cap and rotor.
Check your injectors. Are you getting a signal on the harness? Are the injectors spraying? If you aren't getting signal on the pigtails, you have a wiring problem. If you have a signal, but no spray, you have an injector problem.
Check your fuel pressure. You should have ~40PSI, and it should hold for an hour or two after you stop trying to turn on the car. If you don't, you have a flow problem, or a pump problem.

No. Your description of the problem is lacking. "Spinning"? Please clarify "spinning". Please outline your procedure for "checking" the distributor. Please outline your procedure for "checking" the starter. Define "fine".

No Start Diagnosis Basics
Well, at least you actually read half of my post. Either go through my post and follow the diagnostics, or follow the link in grumble's post.

Or what I posted in #3. Dude, seriously, we aren't going to diagnose and fix your car for you. It's your job to diagnose and fix it - we're just here to help. We can't do that if you won't even follow what we're saying.
