...except that a common brake upgrade for the early 240Z's were Toyota
4Runner calipers...which is what Greg already has on his roadster (and

questions")
Well, since a 240Z runs faster than our beloved Roadsters, maybe by
adding their brake drums it will make our cars run faster - but probably
only the back end of the car, unless you swap in 240Z front brakes of
course.
Peace,
Pat
