Do you think it would be further cause of the 4 pistons?? IF that is true then maybe there isn't a problem. I am going by what the pedal used to feel like (kinda hard). Now it feels more like a chevy pedal (goes down about an inch to an inch and a half before it gets hard).

The only thing that bothers me is the 'squishy' feeling you said to have. ??? I think that's about the freeplay I get before feeling the hardness. It will probably be smoother than 1-piston system but you'll get the same braking effect when you're starting to feel the hardness as when you were pushing hard before you changed. You will get a better range of pressure on the rotors (more control accuracy) and much more brake. I can take way over 1G on braking before starting to slip, with the tires I have. I even feel dizzy sometimes after hard braking.



Your system might be free of air after all. If the pedal goes down to the same place, the first time you pump after sitting for a day, you probably don't have air in it. Have you tried it on the road yet? :thumbs-up:

So far the pedal has been consistent. I can't pump it up anymore and have driven it all weekend. Always the same. I am going to work now. I will try to bleed it again for the hell of it. If I bleed it and check for leaks and get nothing, then I will assume that is the way it is suppossed to be.

So have you seen a big difference compared to the 1-piston system? I hope you're satisfied.

didn't get a chance to bleed them today we were too busy. Overall the car stops nice and no brake noise. Still trying to be nice to the brakes and haven't stopped hard yet. I like that the rotors don't form any rust in the rain though.

Figured out the problem....

master cylinder was bad. Bled all the brakes and there was no air and the pedal was still shitty. Tried to bleed the master cylinder and nothing squirted out the one side. SO, I ordered a new master cylinder and will put it on today. Easy $59.00 fix.

I had the brake pedal right for about a mile and damn did it feel good.

good work. i had the same problem except it was my clutch master cylinder

Put the master cylinder on and the pedal is great. Thank god($450.00 later) Now I have good brakes and don't have to worry about them for a while.

There was probably more Chevy feeling on the pedal that I thought.



Is the pedal starts to feel hard at about the same place on its way down (you said 1" to 1-1/2")? :unsure:
