Five Lug Install Swap Z32
Because the 300ZX only uses two hard lines, the center fitting of the Z32 master cylinder isn't used. To properly work with the 240SX, remove the five-point screw (hint: file down a similar hex key) and inspect whether there is an inverted flare fitting. If there is, you can proceed. If not, you must swap with the fitting off of your stock unit. We were lucky.
