Wow! Thanks for taking the time and effort to document that whole proccess.

I'm planing to finish up the rears (just finished fronts) and do the master cylinder also. Your page just saved my countless hours of research and figuring things out.

That's why I wrote the article! I'm glad I could help.

As always, email me with any suggestions or concerns. I realized that I didn't include anything about caliper/wheel clearance. I need to gather some info to include on the page. Obviously, S14 SE wheels and 26mm calipers are no problem. 30mm calipers should also be no problem with SE wheels.

Hey Alex...Check the 300ZX Brake write up I did on the Zilvia.net homepage under installs. &nbsp;I've got a bunch of part #'s and other info...Feel free to gank anything you need. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>

Thanks Chris! &nbsp;I wondered onto that page earlier today and thought, hmmm...maybe I can gank that info <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;

I'll probably add it when I amend the page after I get the e-brake cables done to my satisfaction.

Thanks bud!

after 93 they used a slightly bigger master cylinder so its slightly fatter then the ones of 90-93 i think it only came on the TTs so i would get one of those if you could. i used it on a 90 NA 2+2 with no probs so then that would give you the full kit :-)

That's not right. I pulled a 17/16" MC off of a '90 NA Z32. The 17/16" was the biggest they made.

Now, there were a few different sizes. I can't figure out why they did it, but there was a 15/16", a 1" and the 17/16"
