Default Troubleshooting: EK9 B18C1 engine crank but won't start!

Alright, so basically i tried to change out the distributor with a new one yesterday late afternoon, and and now my vehicle crank but won't start. At the same time, i also change out the old wires and plugs with newer NGK wires and iridium plugs. You guys think i might have shorted something or perhaps pulled a lose wire off somewhere causing it to have a bad ground perhaps? I'm running a B18C1 in a EK9 with a B16A ECU.

Okay. After in extensive research on the issue through youtubing and so on, i pretty much concluded that the problem is with the TDC. I'm not a 100% sure about it, but that's what make sense to me atm. Tell me if i could be wrong here.






*Update*

Nevermind, guys. I managed to fixed the issue already. It turns out that i had installed the distributor in the wrong way. I'd say i was about 180 degree off from the correct position with the dizzy. Everything is good now.
