Default GSR brake conversion.....NO BRAKES!!!

just spent the last 12 hours with my buddy prepping, and putting on a full dc brake conversion on my eg hatch....took it out to break in the pads and the pedal falls right to the floor....

We bled the brakes twice using brembo dot 4 fluid, stainless in the rear, standard in the front.

I get pressure when the car is off, but when i take it for a spin i get nothin but the e-brake!

replaced the M/C w/ a 15/16s, prop valve with 40/40, new rotors and pads all around...am i missing something?

Check the brake bleeding order, every Honda is NOT the same. And with a full swap, you WILL have to bleed and bleed and bleed, I spent a good hour and a half bleeding because ALL of the fluid came out the back lines when swapping. You must have NO air coming out. Go over bleeding procedures again.
