I went a step further and got a mount made from alloy to retain the factory bolt holes, and space it out enough to allow the top of the filler to be removed without having to cut off some of the firewall lip.
I also made a complete new braided teflon hose to go direct from the master to the slave cylinders....More rubbish I got rid of.
I think I will prefer the feel of the direct master cylinder to the vac assisted one....Should have better feel and be more progressive, Time will tell.
The pedal doesn't feel any heavier, Although the Nismo Twin Plate Clutch is a bit of a softee!!

If anyone is keen on one of these clutch master adapters to be able to run an off the shelf S14 Turbo clutch master, I can get them for $210nzd anodized.
