Default No spark in a GSR

Well my buddy picked up a 95 GSR with a B18C in it the other day. Well, we compression tested the car, and after we were done we could not get any spark. We are definitely getting fuel, but we are not getting any spark.

The coils in the distributor tested good and the ignition control module tested good as well. We still have to make sure the distributor is getting power from the ECU.

Its not timing related, the rotor turns when you turn the car over. It will just keep turning over but wont crank. The cap and rotor look to be in good shape as well.

Anyone have any ideas?

Same questions^^^

Did it run before the comp check?
Do you have power on the black/yellow lead going to the distributor assembly? 94

If you didn't disable the ignition maybe you shorted the coil out. I hear coil tests good You mean resistance checks? I have seen many coils pass resistance check tests and be faulty. Same as above more infoplease.
