Nice work !!
And now I know why there aren't a lot of KZ13's on the street. 26 of them all herded up on one farm. Do you have a sign at the end of your driveway saying "Polled Kawasaki's" ? (Hope you know this is in good jest. Not meaning to offend) I just can't resist an opportunity to make light of masses of Kaw's and herds of cattle.

Do you have to use a different master cylinder with this conversion? And the big question, does this mod make a big difference?

Graham from NZ used the caliper brackets as this guy is selling and some brembos off a Ducati, he kept the Z master cylinder and they worked, how well compared to using the matched Ducati master cylinder i cant advise.
the real answer to your question is you need the correct bore/stroke dimensions those calipers where designed for!
use the wrong cylinder and you could end up with either a very aggressive or under efficient set up.
you can find the 65mm four pot calipers on Ebay often with the master cylinder, Ducati or aprilia used on many of their bikes.
if going to a more efficient braking system i would advise you readdress your front suspension system set up to take full advantage of the extra braking power.
pics show the other way of fitting Brembos to the front forks, small amount of Tig and CNC work buy to me the end product is so much better and it can be reversed

There's no getting around the fact that your TIG/CNC work on the fork to match up the Brembo's is a true "Work of Art" . For those of us who can do this kind of work, they are inspiring. But most of the members don't have the background to do this kind of work and the only viable option is for adaptor brackets and these brackets being offered are just the ticket. What's nice is that they are totally reversible if down the road the owner needs to sell the bike and the prospective buyer wants a stock machine.
