Either the starter or the cables, I put money on the starter.

Check the fuel rail -- press the schrader valve in and fuel should squirt/shoot out (watch out, dont get it in your eyes). If no fuel, then check fuel pump (you should hear a buzzing noise when the key is turned to the ON position but the engine not cranked). If fuel pump is buzzing, check the fuel filter.

I guess we should clarify, is the starter working, or is it cranking and just not starting?

^-- hehe good catch, check starter first (I forgot about that)
