adey is an unknown quantity at this point
Don't forget that the aluminium calipers will be slightly lighter than the iron counterparts, as will 26mm rotors vs 30mm rotors.

When/if doing all 4 wheels, I'd suggest doing the master cylinder at the same time; I moved from my stocks to J-spec chuki 180sx fronts, and even then, I felt a noticable difference in pedal level, stiffness and travel. Go with the Z32 MC if you're going for all corners-- remember that you're pushing 3 times as many pistons with a full Z32 brakes (12- 8 front 4 rear) than you are with stock (4- 2 front 2 rear).

If you're only doing fronts, it'd be a nice addition, but probably not REALLY necessary.

As AKA driver said, there is all the information you could possibly want re: z32 swap in the FAQ as well as past messages. Searching would be a good place to start -- both here and on FreshAlloy.
