Cryptic

Your description is a bit cryptic, perhaps English isn't your primary language ? Given your car is an S30, it is nice to provide as much detail about your car as possible. Like 1974 260z 4 speed trans etc.

Most likely it is something you did to the distributor, you changed the wires it looks like, and maybe changed the distributor ? If you didn't get it in the right way, or didn't get the wires in the right place then it will not run.

I am assuming you have a FSM, your manual will walk you through the firing order and getting it all back together properly.

If you didn't get the manifold on right, bad seal... its really hard to tell what you did or your skill level from your post. Is this your 1st attempt at fixing something ?

Welcome to ZDriver!

You can download your factory service manual (FSM) at XenonS30 and explore that web site for whatever else you need. Your FSM has a lot of info on inspecting and testing and troubleshooting your Z.

In your questions here, the more info you can give our pros - the better their responses to you.
