very unlikely its your fuel pump.  Japanese cars very rarely have fuel pump failures on stock pumps, especially the Denso pumps. 

Not saying its not possible, because I have done one pump but I have done probably 100-150 pumps on domestics.

the fuel pump relay will throw a CEL.   I just replaced mine too.   the car bogged and then never started again one day.   replace the relay.

yeah i figure a way to test my engine .. so i hooked the pump to the battery to test  my car .. and guess what now i get no spark .. lol ..

the injectors work since i took the blugs out and they were wet with fuel ..
now it could be the Ignition power transitor i swaped a few of them i have and no luck ,
the Coils Again wich i replaced befor the winter .. ,
doubt its the cam sensor since its Brand new .

what else could keep me from getting a spark ?  oh and i also swaped my spare Aprom .. jsut in case and still no spark ..

ill tinker on it  tomorow some more and see if i can figure something out .

if you hook the fuel pump up again like stock do you get spark again?

I am thinking that possibly it needs to be wired that way?  A bit of an educated guess tho...

if i do they i can feed fuel to the injectors . since the  pump wont run if hoocked up stock ..  u know  what i mean

if been doing more and more research and its hinting towards  the fuel pump relay and the ASD relay When it goes bad or say doesn't get a signal from the crank sensor, it shuts the fuel pump, coil, and injectors down. Causes too many headaches. soo

 ill look into that tomorow..
