1.) I heard that the Z32 takes ATF instead of power steering fluid. Can anyone confirm this?

2.) Former owner told me the car has an RPS clutch and i read somewhere on the internet that RPS clutches necessitate special clutch slave cylinders. Can anyone shed any light on that?

thanks

So yes, the power steering fluid requires Dexron III.

As for the RPS clutches, I have never heard anything about them needing special slave cylinders.
