Z32 or other brake boosters

Definitely adjust the pushrod. Otherwise your effect pedal travel will not fully engage the brakes, or will drag the brakes.

I am running the full 300zx setup. Z brakes all around, Z master and Z booster. I opted not to use the stock booster because I didn't want a pedal so stiff that I would not be able to modulate braking force well.

This setup feels great. The Z booster sticks out at least an inch farther than the s13 one...but no cutting of the firewall is neccesary (not sure why you thought this). You simply bend out the hardlines a bit to reach the new BMC placement. It's a very easy install.

Also realize that your pedal will actually get softer with the z brakes vs the 180sx brakes.

Thanks for the info. Even if I had to slice a bit out of the frame it's no big deal.
