Message I bought a vehicle very similar to #2 in March.
Don't be attracted by claimed modifications.
If I had known then what I know now I would have bought a bone stock Z.

Turned out the tune was done in Florida for 93 (Only have 91 here in Kansas)
Injectors were ebay knockoffs.
Intake kit with Autozone filter.
"Stainless Steel" exhaust was electroplated crap.

Blew a hole in piston #2 after ~200miles

Obviously an extreme case, but sometimes with a stock vehicle one is afforded the security that mods will be done right.
