Have you checked your alternator. Is the battery holding a charge? How about the plugs?

You may need a new battery. If the battery that you have doesn't have enough amps to turn the car over and start it won't. Go get a new battery or take the battery that you have and have it tested to see if there's enough starting amps. If you live some place where it's cold your gas lines could be frozen, get some of that stuff that you put in the gas tank. Check and make sure that no lines are blocked and that you're getting good air flow.

have you checked the relays? There are some relays under the hood on the passenger side against the wall of the fender. Also check the wiring where the power goes to the battery it has some harnesses and sometimes they tend to go bad. If thats what it is, youll never get it started no matter what you do or replace.

If I were you, I would go to a car forum for your specific car and ask them. They will likely know the common problems with that car and the easy fixes. Could be your fuel isnt getting to the engine, there is no spark, or compression is a problem. Being a newer vechicle, I would think it shouldnt be a big deal.
Do you have a check engine light on?
Find a forum, tell them whats going on and I bet someone had the issue before and knows exactly how your car works and how to find it.

Have you check your Main fuses? Make sure the connections are tight on your battery and starter, and that you didn't disconnect anything while removing the old starter and installing the new one.
When you say no start, do you mean it cranks, but won't run, or that it doesn't even crank?

Check for spark at the plug by holding near metal, exhaust. If you don't have spark, its in your coil pack. If you do have spark, hool up to a nissan code reader to see if there is a problem with the emc or a sensor. Hope this helps.
