Default No Spark to 4th gen vtec lude

I have replaced the spark plugs, cap, rotor, and ignition coil, checked all my fuses, and my car still doesn't get any spark. Still waiting for new spark plug wires, but i really doubt that is the problem. Im not sure how to check to see if the igntion coil is getting any power to it..Does anyone know how to check it? Also, if the ignition coil isn't getting power. What else is the problem?

Ignitor inside of the distributor may be the culprit. (May be burned out) There is a way to check it. I think they are $160 new or something like that.

If you have an aftermarket ignition, change it back to stock and try it again.

Eh, that's bad news for me. Something must be screwed up in mine then because the distributor just got replaced about 1,000 miles ago.
