Default All of a sudden won't start?

Hey guys. I have a 1995 honda civic ex with a swapped b18b1 1.8 liter engine with a t3t4 turbonetics turbo charger. Car was running fine until today when I went to start it. The car would crank over and almost start but would never catch, it almost started everytime but just didn't. I proceeded to crank it over until the battery died. What happened? It's full of gas, the battery gives good power, the oil and fluides have been done recently. It was not a cold day, like plus 6 Celsius. Clutch was in all the way cause it's manual. It was running acouple days before. Car has no damage or anything. Ideas? I will respond to questions. Thanks for your help!

the first thing i would suspect is the main relay, then possibly the coil ignitor in the distributor.
