When is the last time the engine ran? Puff-puff-puff while cranking might be an intake valve stuck open or an exhaust valve not opening. Or a leak at the manifolds. Are you sure everything is tight?

I did the adjustments by manual (idle speed and mixture screws) and managed to fire it up, yay! But it runs super rough, only like on 3 cylinders. When i rev it, it spits and coughs but fires up more cylinders. All in all, i dont really know is it the timing or badly tuned carbs

Works quite good now, idle is still quite rough. I do have unisyn tool but its not accurate enough, it seems. https://www.dropbox.com/s/qdavlotzfpam95x/20140315_125936.mp4

Weirdest thing: i have some sort of liquid coming from the exhaust.. its clear and quite tasteless. Not fuel. I got scared and opened the oil pan, but luckily only oil came out. My car has been in quite cold garage trough the winter and fuel is over 6 months old, i wonder is it possible that water has been condensed in to tank and now pouring out the exhaust?

Water is a product of petroleum combustion. It's normal. Normally it would stay in vapor phase but your cold exhaust system is causing it to condense to liquid, and drip out the tail pipe.
