Looking to buy an an s13 redtop car, compression is 150 across the board, is it seems pretty low to me? What's your thoughts?

no that's fine. directly from the service manual:

min: 128psi
standard: 156psi
max variation between cylinders: 14psi

it's a low compression turbo motor, so it's not going to have the same numbers as your civic did
