normal brakes for an 850???? 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Vaughn on  Sun Dec 28 11:49 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have recently upgraded the 240 brick to an 850R and notice the 850 doesn't appear to stop any where near as quickly as the old 240. I have replaced all discs and pads with volvo parts and also had the fluid flushed.

Still doesn't appear to pull up as quicly as the old 240 which had twin piston calipers as against the newer 850 single piston. However, there is also a small chance that i'm typically going faster in the 850 that i ever was in the 240 :)
