tried to start it just now and this time it doesnt crank as long as yesterday before it cuts off. tried calling nissan and all they suggested trying was starting with the spare key. didn't work. could this be an issue with the spark plug?

There is an interlock switch - brake pedal on 7AT, clutch pedal on 6MT - that can go bad and, IIRC, can cause your symptoms. You can check the switch with a voltmeter/ohmmeter. The Factory Service Manual (see link in my sig) has wiring diagrams, system descriptions, and diagnostic procedures that may help.
