Got an adapter that is flared but it doesnt bottom out and I had to use permatex and I think it is causing problems with my brakes. Going to change the brake booster and fix the lines the pedal is super stiff like no power brakes.

Z32 never made a 7/8" BMC, only 15/16", 1" and 17/16"...............I have a 15/16" BMC with the flare fitting already installed for sale LMK if interested...

I got a flare fitting I believe its a NABCO flare though and you probably have a TOKICO BMC if you dont know the size becasue the size usually isn't inscribed on TOKICO units but is on NABCO units...heres a pic anyhow sorry about teh quality but I cant seem to take extreme close ups:

Macro > you
I just found out that those fittings are called furls (spelling). I just call them squirrels.

just to be correct you can use a z31 84-89 300zx bmc right on s13? its a 15/16 and Nabco and at NAPA all the flare fittings are there already.

You could have just gotten one from FRsport.com. They carry the Z32 MC with the fitting already pressed in from factory and they're local(OC) too. It will save you all that trouble and time.

Autoparts stores seem to take a universal 1 or 2 sizes fits all apllications for instance:

Z32:
Sizes of BMC: 15/16", 1", 17/16"
Split points: 498psi and 356psi
Makes: TOKICO and NABCO

You need to know what ur needs are and then do your home work so you know which BMC that you are buying is correct for your brake setup I wouldn;t buy one form an autoparts stor unless it had a factory part number inscribed on it and then look up that part number and then verify its specs...there are to many variations when it comes to buying a master cylinder

so can you use a 84-89 300zx bmc? its 15/16 same places for the brake line connections.
