You're referring to the violet wire that is after the ST SIGN Fuse 10Amp? That going to be a 12volt signal from the ignition switch threw the clutch switch to the PCM, indicating a Start condition to the PCM.
How are you determining the spark is too advanced of TDC? You're not going to be able to determine the spark timing exactly without seeing it on a scope with reference to TDC.
While cranking spark is going to occur 6-8* degrees BTDC. The spark events are happening way too fast to see by eye. Are you sure your cam/crank timing is correct? You're kind of all over the place here. If the engine won't crank now, what did you do before that fault started happening?
Here's the specs on ignition timing, but you have to deal with one issue at a time here.
I've added the specs on the gap for the crank sensor also, along with the Distributor testing to check the pick up coils inside the distributor.
With the starter issue you are going to have to check for power at the locations on the wiring diagram, beginning with the switch on the clutch pedal, make sure power is making it in and out of the switch, if it is then move on to the starter motor. Adding random transistors to the PCM can cause more problems than it's going to solve. Run through the distributor testing and make sure you're getting the 1 and 4 pulses per rotation it should be. Turn the distributor back from its overly advanced position, it shouldn't be that far forward to begin with.
