Yes had the same problem. I used an R33 clutch master cylinder as it is a shorter item. I used standard R32 mounts and brackets albeit modified brackets to allow the motor to sit lower.

I've got the same setup as yours (rb30/25 into an r32) and I had the exact same problem (clutch master cylinder being too long). After weeks of thinking about what to do, my mechanic finally decided to instead just trim the back edge off the plenum. Fits perfectly now... The new turbo however (GT35R) only slightly scrapes the strut tower. I only wish I knew about the r33 master cylinder earlier otherwise I wouldn't have had to cut up the new plenum.

+1 on both those accounts

I got an R33 clutch master cylinder as I thought my custom plenum was going to hit it, turned out it was fine.

I also used known R32 RB20 brackets and brand new R32 RB20 engine mounts. I redrilled the holes in the bracket to drop the engine down some.

I then had to get 6boost to do me a slightly different exhaust manifold as the turbo (GT35R) hit the strut tower.
