My engine

I have a 1991 Mazda rx7 Turbo and it won't kick over I tried the compression gage and it read at 0. Could it be my apex seals ?

Yes...rebuild time.

*unless you didn't do the compression test correctly and the tester malfunctioned giving you a false reading.
Take the plugs out and listen to the sounds when you roll it over..if it goes "woosh'woosh,woosh"..evenly and strongly then you may have done the test incorrectly.
