i think you mean BM57

and you need to mod the lines to suit the non abs,

but if you can find a master from a r23 gtr vspec, then its will just bolt up,
but i wouldnt, just to old,

None of the ones listed are straight bolt up as the non abs s14 master has it's lines in completely different spots to the 32 non abs master and all the abs masters.

I would be half way inclined to leave the master alone.

The other half of me would be going an s15 BM57 and mangling lines to fit and using a tee on the fronts.

The bias won't be right which ever way you do it, so the best solution would be an external proportioning valve with the internal valving removed in which ever master you choose. S14 is an easy one as the rear bias valving hangs off the side of the cylinder, unlike the others.

stock s14 is a bm44 afaik so not a bad thing.

Piston size difference between the brembos and the s14 fronts isn't huge so you should get away with it.

what about a bm50 from a z32/33 300zx, non-abs. matt apparently got his brand new from nissan from $65, either way they're 1"

What s15s come with a BM57? thought they were all bm50

It's not like it really matters though, you're going brembos for the rep :)

my bad, read bm57 up top and just typed it in.

Do the zeds have twin piston rears or singles? If they are singles then you are on a winner, if not the bias is completely screwed

Z32's have single piston rears and twin fronts. The twin turbo Z32 calipers are all alloy.

Yep S15 is BM50 and so are R33 GTR's

Unless the Vspec came with BM57 but all R34 GTR's have BM57

if you have trouble finding a non ABS BM, ppl have ran ABS BM on NON ABS cars

Ok heres the skinny since my r33 gtr bmc was abs also. You got 2 holes on a s15 abs bmc. 1 is front and the other is rear. Front in a ABS system gets split at the abs unit.

Ok Josh it will fit. only thing you will need to do is gently bend the front lines on your 13 and put in a short line to a splitter. Splitter can be got from any silvia rear brake line setup. Got mine from a s14 before. Short line i recommend using one from a 4 pot caliper ie. skyline. The short one that comes off caliper to the flexible line.

Yes it can/has been done and yes you can do it to. Its as easy as a slapchop.
