If i could bet money on it odds would be in favor of crank sensor or cam sensor. Have you checked for fuel or spark? Did you try opening the throttle while cranking?

yep, crank or cam sensor. Crank sensor is most likely culprit so I recommend replacing that one first. Be careful not to break it when you're taking the old one out, some are stuck in there good.
