Not firing... at all!

Well i hope theres some clever people online this evening as got a slight problem.

let me run through what happened and what i know so far.

 

picked my v8 supra up from the mot station and on the way home on acceleration suddenly died on me. revs dropped to 0 and all that was working was the usual radio lights etc.

ended up having to call for the recovery people and whiles waiting had a look over the car.

 

no leaks or anything like that so i checked all the fuses, all were fine. tried starting it up again and the car is getting fuel and air. after getting recovered home i checked the spark plugs which turned out are not getting any spark from. now these are new sparks and leads and rotor arms were replaced when i did the swap so surely if it was a dodgy lead, spark or cap that it would at least try to fire....

 

two days before the mot the imobiliser was playing up so i took out the scorpion alarm etc and know that was fine as was able to drive the 5 miles to the mot station and got three miles back. thought maybe where i had reconnected the old wire that that could of come loose but turns out they havent.

 

any ideas guys cos im running out of them.
