It will work, but I'd always recommend going 300zx/r33 rear setup
so calipers and drum assembly just for the handbrake
alone. Plus, I don't really like the idea of running any sort of caliper spacers/adapters but that's just me.

yeah, i too dont really like the idea of the calipers attached to aftermarket brackets. after posting i thought about if you were keeping the oem rear calipers, may upset the brake balance with the front 8-pot k-sports too. just spoke to a friend of mine who has the k-sports and he confirmed this balance upset as he experienced it first hand, he opted for the Z32 setup

There is nothing wrong with running adapters I am running front evo brembos with adapters and they are fine.
Z32 rear set up is the way to go though

I have these. Got them fitted approx 2wks ago with yellow stuff all round and I have to say i am very happy with them. Loads better than my previous standard setup.

As stated though the z32 setup is meant to be even better.

I know there is nothing 'wrong' with the adapters, I'd just rather have things that fit without them that's all :thumbs:
