I think the problem you're going to run into here is that (and this is second hand information. . . ) Z32's in were all or the vast majority came with anti-lock brakes. Which means that won't work with a non-abs car, at least not as a direct bolt-on.

Dig a little more online and see what you can find, but I'm pretty sure I've heard that from more than just one person.

Actually they do work. Many people(including myself) have Z32 BMC's and they work. If its on a say S13, it will require the third fitting to be installed but thats not that difficult.

Yes, thanks for that. I have Z32 brakes and master cylinder on my S13 just like the rest of the world. BUT IT'S NOT RHD.

The abs master cylinders don't even have a drilled spot for the "third fitting", it's cast aluminum and would require it being drilled out with two different size drill bits, a smaller one thru to the bore, then a larger one half the thickness of the wall, then the upper portion threaded for the flared fitting on the brake line, then the flared piece tapped lightly into the master cylinder.

Forgot to mention that one of the Skylines (R32 or R33) N1 had a master cylinder that had the same bore as a Z32, with the 3 brake line fittings on it, making it perfect for this application. If I can find the part number I'll post it up. But they are $$$ from the dealer.
