crank but no start? if it was a after market alarm i would check around the ing.switch area for open wires or anything out of place, better yet remove it completely.
If it cranks but doesn't start check for spark and fuel pressure or maybe at the least "smell of fuel" then go with spark, check the wires-should be no more then 25ohms for factory wires also check the ingnitor or coil- in the distributor. coil for burns as far as visual inspection. This is all if it started before you removed the battery.
Hard to tell what its doing when you turn the key cause you never mentioned that, but if all the above its not cranking over or its making like a click click or seems like its almost ready to turn over try bumping the starter or cylcling the key serveral times. Its its manual check the clutch pedal switch or just jump the 2 pin connector going to the switch. Its hard to say what it is. The more info always the better and in detail.

hot wire the starter and see if it clicks...

well if mine is what I think it is, then its directly under the stock intake pipe/tube thinggy. also as far as noises, there are none whatsoever. no clicking from the motor, no turning over, no nothing. the only noise the car is making is a noise that sounds similar to the noise the car makes when a turn signal is on. that little click click sound from inside the car behind the steering wheel. the only thing is tho is that the turn signals are not on.. I donno the car wont do shit and its pissin me off haha
