My battery is good and the coil pack, spark plugs and wires have been recently replaced. Any ideas to what is causing this?

Thanks in advance.
I would suspect a fuel issue. The excessive cranking indicates time to get fuel to the injectors.
I would start looking for air leaks on pipes, fuel filter and pump flow.

Not familiar with your car or engine but most injector systems run at pressure and if the presser is dropping there has to be a reason, usually an air leak where it should not be.
