I just bought my G35 as a project in decent condition test drove good and didnt stall out when i started it then but after trailering it an hour home it started then died out and its been stuck at doing that. im not sure what it could be MAF?, Crankshaft sensor, or Camshaft i just need some more insight or help figure this out i cant get codes because my code reader wont connect to the car but there was no check engine light before anyways. if anyone knows what could be wrong please let me know! https://streamable.com/e9tmy5

Test drove and that probably stirred up all to 'goodies' in the fuel tank.. I'd start with the fuel system as this looks like its starving for fuel. No fuel pressure, no start.
Ignition ON, do you hear the fuel pump prime for at least 3 seconds?

Here is an idea for you, download the service manual for your car and read it before you spend money on things that might be good: FSM
And here is my thread about my nightmare with my 07: Long and rough warm or hot restarts

Good thing you found your issue but i suggest replacing all 4 at the same time so you don't end up like me, having to get off the highway because my engine went into limp mode while doing 85+ mph when i had those Hitachi cam sensors from RockAuto..
