Relax, i did search but nothing came up to answer my question.

I have a RHD Silvia so i imported a Z32TT Master cylinder to complete the rest of my brake swap. However, my Silvia BMC (no ABS) has 3 hard lines running to it while the Z32TT BMC only has 2 inputs for hard lines.

What do i have to do to make this work properly?

It technically should be the same for left hand or right hand drive.

Come on guys give me some credit i have read those post like 3 times.

My problem now is on my Nabco BMC i have the 2 port version that in the stickies they say to get a new VW style fitting adapted for the 3rd hole (plugged for stock operation). However the plugged hole is way to small for any hard line to fit. Can i split one of the lines in to 2 and still have safe brake operation (thus eliminating the need for adapting the smaller hole) Something like this:
