I might be late but for visuals pop the hood and check to see if the VIN plate is still located before the radiator if not it has been in a serious front impact collision. Also look at where the body panels meet to see if the fit is form. If you can lift the car up and check the turbos for oil leaks. I hope I was not too late?

My Z is 92 and I'm the original owner. I put all the bolts on you possibly could with out touching the engine. Good luck on your hunt!
