I don't see why you would need a new master cyl- just hook the lines up on on the new rear-end..nothing to it, might need the different e-brake cables though- might take a little riggin there depending on how they are. I'm not sure if the 3rd gens are the same as 4th when it comes to that.

ebrake cables prob
def not a master cylinder.. unless for some reason it had to do with abs.. and i dont think it does at all..
for anyone out there doing something like this.. or just swappping rear ends out.. do check on yoru abs wether it is 3 channel or 4 channel in your stock and your replacement rear end.. some trouble i ran into after my swap.. and i still havent gotten it fixed..

It should be obvious that the fronts do more even if you don't know it- just look at the size difference of the calipers and rotors.
Also- its just another little small thing that the Z28's have over the base model cars- gives them another thing to say customers are getting in the upgraded package.
