88 Pulsar SE pilot bearing (althought I think all Nissan pilot bearings are the same) and an S13 TO bearing.

All the nissan pilot bushing bearings are the same, the best pilot bearing option is the one I posted above if you are willing to spend a few bucks more.

The KA throw out bearing will work, but so will the Z32 and its bigger and more stout.

Anyways...

if you use the bigger z32 throwout bearing, do you need to upgrade to the nismo slave cylinder?

No, these parts don't directly affect each other. The only time you would possibly use the Nismo slave cylinder is if you bypassed the clutch dampener box and replaced all rubber lines with braided stainless.

I replaced the lines and bypass the damper, don't need the nismo slave cylinder

That's for when you have an upgraded clutch plate that requires more force to move (due to greater force applied to the clutch), I believe.
