The S60R setup is extremely HOT looking and damn sweet in performance. Some of the guys on turbobricks are running the S60 kit on their 240s. However, you need to spend a chunck for the calipers, rotors, and adapter plates as well as upgrade to 17" rims. I think the costs excluding rims ofcourse were around $1k or so. Honestly, the 240 has a really good braking system. Here's my setup and I'm extremely pleased and can notice a performance increase in stopping distances. ATE grooved Powerdisks all four corners (vented front, solid rear); Stainless lines; PBR/Axxis Metal Masters; Superblue DOT-4 fluid. Zero noise, no brake dust, no shimmies, no alignment problems, no brake dive, hard/solid brake pedal = one happy guy!!
