i agree, if i starts sometimes, then it probably is the relay.

fuel pump possibility? i dunno throwin in my 2 cents... had a buddy who had a similar experience...

you are going to have to give us a little more info in order to help you...
does it get spark?

does the main relay click?

does the fuel pump run and prime the rail?

does the computer give you the flash to show that it is getting power?

does it crank?
does it try to fire?
are the timing belt marks lined up..
did it run before

fill us in and we can help you. .
there are alot of very smart honda people here...
but we all will need more info from you

Today the car started up first try but i can't hear any clicking or nothing could it have something to do with the chipped ecu in it? also i can't hear the fuel pump cause i have a really loud aftermarket rad fan.

Does is smell like fuel in the engine bay? Does it ever start then die?

-Fuel Filter

-Injector O-rings

Disconnect the fan and then turn the key to "on". (Plus, the fan shouldn't be turning on for a cold start.)
