Still no spark! Help please.

i posted a thread a few weeks ago trying to get this figured out. a few helpful suggestions were given with no prevail. i recently bought a non running 88 na. the day after i bought it i tried to start it just for fun and it started. i drove it two separate times that day and it seemed to run strong. the nest day when i tried to start it and guess what, it didnt start. since then i have been determined to get this thing running. so far i have replaced the ecu. the CAS, both coils, and the condenser. the car does have the factory installed alarm and i am thinking that might be whats wrong with it. this morning the alarm went off twice randomly. i did unplug the alarm module but again, still no spark. any ideas?

Check the wiring at the ecu and see if the PO tampered with it. If you've replaced all that stuff, then there has to be some wiring issue somewhere. Grab the FSM and go through the wiring diagram and look for the associated wires at the ecu and near the components.

check into the alarm system.
i don't think you can just disconnect it.
your alarm is wired into everything.see if you can attach it back up,and then use your Door key.lock it,unlock it,and try to start the car.
by the way.it's a a guess.I have an s4 and it has no alarm.don't tell anyone..ok?
