Default friends 3000gt wont start

so my friend is trying to sell me her 95 3000gt. it wont start. it turns over but wont start. now its having problems doing even that becaus the batery is running low. it is a 5 speed. the story i got from her was that she was sitting at a red light and all of a sudden it just dies. acording to her it was running fine until then. it has not started again sense. i realy need a car and she realy needs the money. so if anyone has any ideas or imput or questions please let me no. thank you very much.

I'd do a compression test, sounds like the timing belt jumped time.

I'm not sure what it should be but anything over 150 psi should be fine.
