Most likely you're going to have to replace parts to get it to work.
$150 for a simple diagnosis is a bit much.
It should be simple to fix just by process of elimination. Check for spark, fuel, etc.
I'm going to say a new distributor. Sung's hatch was an ls swap, and it would crank, but wouldn't fire with spark. A new dibby was the problem. Make sure all the plug wires are in the proper order, and replace the rotor.
Just find a buddy with an ls that runs, and start swapping parts til you find out what you need.

if your a mechainc then you know $150 is really not that great of money to fix a car , the average around town is $60-70 per hour labor in shops.
