I am mot getting spark out of the plug wires and with the timing we are lost there as well I hope I got it right.

Now you did do the whole skim key thing right? And your not just trying to swap the motor and ECU.

Where in NJ are u located... if it reasonable. I should just stop by and chill ( literally since it's getting cold out ) when you get the car runnin

Double ceck your timing and then try swaping the crank sensor. Both of those things will keep the Engine from starting.
If the timing is off by too much the computer won't fire the injectors or the coil pack I forget which to keep the motor from blowing itself apart. And if it isn't receiving a signale from the crank sensor it won't start either.
