Here's what will happen. Your stock MC is a 3/4" diameter. The 15/16" MC from a 280zx has an over 56% larger surface area on the piston. You will have to push 56% harder to produce the same stopping power. In addition the 280zx master is designed for use with rear disc brakes and the residual valve in it will be too weak for use with drums.

 

I installed a 7/8" master from a 200sx in my 710 sedan and the peddle is very firm. It's reassuring, but a lot of work around town.

 

Unless you plan to install a set of zx struts with the much larger calipers and vented rotors I would go with what you have now.
