2003 acura cl crank but wont start

hello guys, i recently bought a 2003 acura cl type s. i love the car. a couple days ago i drove the car down the road, and when i got in to start it the car cranked but wouldnt start. i searched through forums and found it most likely was the mian relay. I bought a new relay and car still wont start. i belive it is not the fuel pump because i have fuel pressure going into the engine. even though i have pressure to the engine i am getting no fuel to the spark plugs to start the car. all three plugs are dry when i pull them after i attempt to start the car.

When you are trying to start it do you see the Green key light in the inst cluster flashing? Sounds like an immobilizer issue.

Nice Chris Harris on Cars avatar. That was truly a great episode.

I have the same issue on my 03 tl-s. No codes. Key light comes on and flashes and goes out. Replaced cam and crank sensor. Engine is in time with good compression. No rpm on dash when cranking. Tried three different pgm relays. Fuel pump comes on.
