Is there a difference between the master and slave cylinder for non turbo vs turbo models?? and what do i do if stripped the clutch line?

Here s some pictures as I attempt the master and slave cylinder. 8 hrs into removing the cylinders I realize wtf.... Is this a turbo?? No paperwork, but the hardware suggest so. But the car doesnt seem that fast!??? so im really scratching my head

Gracias, I am reading alot however the forum can be kind of all over the place but good nevertheless. I am working through all my 280zx books before i make any decision

Thank you for your detailed responses, I have just recieved 7 books from Amazon regarding the 280ZX. I am reading it and after im done in a week I will have the best idea on how I will approach this project. BluDestiny, FricFrac; This is my plans so far. Suspension upgrades on all rods and coils, tokiko hp, s13, front/rear bar and bushing kits turbo gt35r,engine rebuild kit, exedy stage 1 clutch, fidanza flywheel, brake kit (?), I havent gotten far but will post pictures to begin of the engine bay clean out Thanks!

Good Evening everyone, I purchased my 81 280zx about a month ago, It was wonderful driving around, the sound of the L28E is excellent! However two weeks of daily driving, the clutch pedal went limp. Now I always knew I wanted to spend some money to make it a beautiful daily driver, and good enough to slap down most challenges from younger hasty gentlemen or ladies. So, I admit that I am ignorant. To remedy that I decided to purchase Chilton, Haynes, Vizard on engine hp gains, and engine rebuilds. I also purchased dvds on engine rebuilding and engine swaps. My options are vast, however my knowledge is very scrambled but I would very much appreciate your advice on this. I have been researching on all my spare time on the forum but the knowledge can be very scattered for me my skill level is zero. So the details Two routes the vq engine swap or 280ZX performance master engine rebuild, new carbs, perhaps the new garrett turbos, suspension/struts, brake upgrade, clutch upgrade, transmission re ring?
