Are you doing Z32 Rears too?

If not I would suggest not using the Z32 MC unless you plan on getting a  
Brake Bias Controller. With the Z32 master I found that the car was way  
to rear brake bias happy on stock rear calipers and I would Roast my  
rear brakes at the track. When I say roast I mean finish a new set of  
pads and warp the rotors. I stuck the S13 MC on and it was like a 50/50 Bias.

I like the Stock MC better than the Z32 MC with Stock Rear Calipers.

If you want to be a ballar and do it go ahead and do it, but just get a good set of rotors and pads and you will be fine.
