Hey guys, i have done my research and i googled and all that. I still cant find a legitimate answer.

Heres my question, i have the front Z32 aluminum calipers that are ready to go in, i decided to not do the rear swap, instead just use ss lines on the rear and swap in new rotors, but the fronts will have ss lines, new rotors, and the z32 rebuilt calipers =) my question however is the pedal feel will be different, guys: do you think i should change my master cylinder or not, like will it help, does it matter, or will i be fine with stock. Thanks so much for the help guys,

one more thing: i do understand that changing the MC will help with pedal feel, but i think it might be only helpful for all 4 brakes changed, just throw me your .02 guys thanks... O ya and i have yokohama tires so my rubber is able to handle upgraded power. so with that all in mind whats up?

I got a s13 with R32 fronts and S13 rears.The master cylinder should be changed to a Z32 master cylinder and also somehow mess with the proportion valve.Other than that my fronts just lock up too fast at times.They'll grab but lock up stupid fast.I have a s13 master was gonna upgrade but gotta downgrade to sell rims so hope this helped.Someone will pop in and correct it or not.
