What condition are the calipers in? Are they torqued to spec?

What car did the BB, MC, and prop valve come from? Not a GSR...

calipers were good, and the tq specs as well.

The BB came off of a GS-R and the MC and prop valve came from a integra RS.

the m/c piston to brake-booster pushrod clearence is not adequate enough; in otherwords, the pushrod inside the brake-booster is depressing the piston on the m/c. The helms as well as chilton/haynes (the master book in your local library) has a procedure to adjust this.
