Timo had asked about the weight of the 4 piston caliper for the 200 series Volvos (offered for both solid and vented rotors)
Not as much of a difference as one would think (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Attached image(s) |

Well I am sure Tn has some roads that require heavy braking ,but here in northern Indiana the roads are pretty flat! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Before I took my car apart my brakes were really spongy,this could be from worn rubber brake lines,improperly bled system or somthing I read in Grass Roots Motor Sports mag this issue.Floor pan flexing where the master cylinder is mounted,giving the impression of a spongy pedal......I am doing a V6 swap and just thought bigger engine=bigger brakes?.......
