does anyone have this setup?

I just notice my 1998 s14 comes with a 15/16 master cylinder already, im currently on the process of buying a z32 brakes. But i read alot of stuff about buying a 1 1/16 master cylinder for the z32 30mm brakes. My question is, is 15/16 master cylinder good enough for the z32 30mm brakes? Do they have a good pedal feel?

Depends on what a good pedal feel is to you. I just finished the z32 front and rear swap, and to tell you the truth, i don't mind how the pedal feels. It's a little soggier, but modulating the brakes still isn't a problem. i'm sure the 1" or 1 1/16" master cylinders feel a little firmer and more confident, but until I can afford the money and time to put one in, the 15/16" works just fine.

BTW, i have some 300zx 30mm aluminum calipers and rear 300zx ebrake assembly for sale in the parts section on this site if you're interested.
