I think they name all their cars with womanly names in Japan. Fairlady Z, Silvia, etc. I think it drops the horsepower by about 20

OP, I would actually take that badge as a big red flag if you're looking to buy. I would doubt that someone's only "mod" would be a fairlady badge. Check carefully for any other mods on the car that may be low quality or shoddy work. I would personally be more comfortable buying a completely stock car.
