I am still on my hunt for a Z and came across someone with a 91 zx tt selling for cheap. The car was rear ended and now will not start. Ran and drove fine up until the accident and has been sitting for a few years now. Just want some opinions of what you guys think could be common problems and fixes to get the car up and running again. Im not too familiar with the actual mechanics of a z32 as i have never worked on one. However the first thing that comes to my mind is an emergency fuel shut off valve that could have been triggered during the accident.

This would be my first guess, second guess wiring got cut in the wreck, check the top of the fuel-pump, make sure the wires are getting power.
