Default something weird is going on with my brakes...

whenever i made a complete left turn (cant turn steering wheel anymore), and then i straighten the wheel, my brakes go to the floor and i have to pump the brake for them to come back... almost like they need to be bled..

whenever i turn right or just drive or anything they are perfect. it only happens on sharp left turn and i dont understand why.

i have bled my brakes (RL,FL,RR,FR) and that didnt help, i thought that my brake line might be pinched because i just lowered with about 2 in all the way around and i looked and nothing... they still do it.

like i said, i just lowered it and it never did this until then so i have no idea what else it could be. i dont think my master cylinder would be out but thats a possibility i guess...

any advice anyone thanks!!

BTW its a 97 coupe ex if that matters...

The lines have an inner rubber liner that can tear and clog things up. Did you kink or bend the lines at all when you did the suspension? Are you sure your master cylinder isn't leaking? Throughly check the lines for cracks, soft spots and indentations.
