So i have finally gotten the 94 gt engine into the car. It was a real pain, basically had to use the jdm engine as a long block, and switch everything over. Well after doing the timing belt, water pump. switching fuel rails and intake manifold, exhaust manifold, ect, I finally finished, sure enough, the car turns, but wont start. After doing all this, i dont even know where to start. If anyone could help, i would really appreciate it.

Biggest mistake, never buy a JDM and swap everything over unless you absolutely know your stuff. Biggest helper, would be to check your timing and if all the notches on the crank and the cams match up to TDC, then check your distributer to see if your getting spark. Then if it still won't fire have someone spray in some starter fluid to your intake and see if that fires it up. If it runs until the fuel spray is gone then you have fuel issues. Check for CEL codes.
