Take a chance on a 91 TT?

Hi guys, I am a Z enthusiast and currently own a built turbo 350z on 15 psi and a 84 300zx (z31). I have had a couple other Z's, 280zx, etc. So I've been looking around trying to fill th gap between the two years and found a 91 300zx NA with 80k miles. So the teen who has it, decided to buy a TT engine out of a wrecked car and do the swap himself. He stated that since the engine swap, two cylinders have not fired. Since the car was in a wreck he assumed the engine was fine and the engine only has 85k as well. He said he has not been able to get those two cylinders to fire in this new motor period. I mean my thoughts are it could be as simple as two spark plug wires being switched, or it could be something serious..the guy is asking 1500 but I got him down to 1300 over txt. He has stripped most the Interior but still has it. Some aftermarket parts koyo rad, hoses, etc. Worth the risk or pass? What else would make two cylinders misfire?

Do it!

The VG30DETT has coil packs, not plug wires... but you've got the right idea, probably dead coil packs or injectors.

Yeah that's a major steal even for a project car.
