i have every thing i need(front calipers, rotors 30mm, z32 conversion lines) but i was curious if i had to get the 300zx brake booster or any thing else?

EPIC failure
no you don't need the brake booster
if you are doing full front and rear it helps, makes the pedal more firm.
but you DON'T NEED it

oh and you need brake pads

According to this website, no brake booster is needed. However, you need a bigger MC. Did you get the 300zx MC? I believe they are all the same, turbo or non-turbo 300.

you dont need anything else, i did the 300zx upgrade on my 95' s14 used the same MC pedal feels good, big diffrence when braking hard compared to stock

another quick question are they going to feel super stiff or are they gonna feel close to the stock brakes. im only doing the front conv not all around

pedal feel didnt change much for me, when you apply them hard thats when you feel the braking diffrence
