ZX MC Swap Hard Line Connection


Recommended Posts

I have a 76 280Z. I bought a 79 ZX 15/16 master cylinder to swap in. The Z MC where the hard lines screw in has adapters that are appx 1" diameter. The ZX MC boss is only appx 1/2" dia. Also, the Z MC has a spring with a rubber & metal disc with tiny holes in it that were under the hard line adapters. Does the ZX take something similar? The pieces dont fit in the ZX MC.

All the searches talk about the rod length, but nobody talked about issues with the hard lines matching up.

That’s because it not supposed to be a problem… Both the Z and ZX master cylinders will mate to the 10mm brake line fittings. The “adapter†(as you put it) is part of the master cylinder. Do not unscrew it from the master cylinder.
