Default 350z not cranking

Hello, fellow Z owners.
I am having a little trouble starting the Z and would appreciate any suggestions or input.
So I have a 2005 350z 6speed, when i go to turn her on all the lights come on, fuel pump is priming and everything seems normal but when i go to crank it over there is nothing. Not cranking. Now the wierd part is if I reset the ecu twice it will start and everything is fine, runs great. That is untile i turn it off and try to start it again, then its just like the begaining.
Starter and battery are good.
Has anyone ever experienced this?

Check the plunger on your clutch, ive seen them cause problems before... The ecu thing is odd. If you have another key I would try that also.
