Stage 2 Clutch Change car doesn't start HELP!?

Hey, i bought a competition stage 2 clutch and changed it myself on my vq30dek. after everything was assembled, the car won't start. When the clutch was being changed, i only dropped the tranny, i left the engine in the bay and didn't unplug anything but the starter,MAF, and disconnected the battery. And now all it does is turn over.

So when you turn they key does it just click and do nothing like you don't have the clutch pedal depressed? Does it crank at all?

When you reinstalled the trans, are you sure you didn't mis-connect a couple of wires? I know 3rd gens have a couple that can accidentally be switched, and have a "no start" condition as you describe.

I checked the plugs and everything is plugged where it should be.
