R32, or 300zx breaks are the best. If you upgrade to them, you really should change out your master cyl to a 300zx unit, or you will get break fade.

One second.

it's BRAKES

Ok. now that that's out.

Z32 brakes are the easiest thing for you to get.

There's a total walk through for you. He did it on an S14 and included the 5 lug swap. You can overlook the 5 lug swap and it should still apply to your application

Also, do a search. it's covered, ad naseum.

And in regards to the master cylinder question you have.http://www.sportcompactcarweb.....html

will put some math behind why it's a good idea. Just look down about 1/3rd and you'll see the portion of the article.

I own a 1993 240sx coupe and i need new brakes. Instead of just replacing them, I was looking at getting Z32 brake calipers. But, now I'm unsure because i have heard about R32 and R33 calipers and was wonder which is the better brake upgrade to buy? Also, if i do upgrade, would i have to upgrade the brake master cylinder?

hmm, did I miss anything? lol.

get a good set of performance pads, slotted rotors if you wish, and some performance brake fluid and you will be perfect.

Why would you get brake fade if you don't replace the MC. I heard the reason you change over to a Z32 MC is because otherwise the brakes are going to be way too touchy.

I would try searching this subject. There are tons of threads on brakes, calipers, rotors, brake pads, master cylinders, pedal feel with z32 brakes and ABS, and also without ABS. There is a lot of information, a lot of opinions, and 1 easy way to get all of the answers you could ever imagine
