I had same with my car, i removed the back seat, and on the drivers side there is a eletrical connection, pull this apart and use an electrical test meter. Put the meter on the thickest wires, as the others are for the fuel gauge. Then get someone to turn the ingition on, you should see 12 volts if the relay is OK or nothing if it is knackered. From what I can gather the fuel pumps are prone to going. I purchased a new uprated one from Mark at Lateral Performance, he supplied a very good service. Hope this helps.

It's probably your fuel pumps dead, did this on mine 95wrx with no notice, just stopped! uprated pumps are cheaper than the OE replacement, GGR sorted me out.
