Default 2003 wont start everytime

Sometimes my car will start right up and other times, like today, it will turn over and over but won't start. I have heard that this is a semi-common problem with the 350z and could have to do with a NATS antenna read error but was wondering if anyone knew the true reason for this problem and could put me in the right direction for solving it.

No I only have the one key on my key chain and it's still doing it. I just had my car re-keyed though because I lost the other set.

I've had a cam and crank sensor go bad, but both tossed up the idiot light on the dash board. When that happened, the car was nearly impossible to start.

Yeah that's thr problem. It's not throwing any lights on the dash so it's hard to diagnose the problem. I took it to the dealership today so hopefully they'll be able to figure it out.
