[Roadsters] brakes

Given that the brakes on the Roadster are the same setup that was used on the
Jensen Interceptor, a car that weighs some 60% more than a Roadster, I have
never understood the reasoning behind the Volvo (or any other) brake
bupgradesb.

Once you deal with a flexing firewall (on LHD models), I
always found the brakes to be damned solid.

While we're talking about conversions: how
about 240z calipers? I have a
lot of them (and a 240z) so that would be an
ideal set up for mine. Where
can I learn more?

Thanks

Besides, isn't the Maxima conversion a better way to go these days?
