Default !!!~~~~~~~~~Please HElp Wit My Brake Issue

i have a 1990 civic si hatch

my brake issue is that i hit the brakes and it takes for ever for my car to stop, i'll have to push real hard just for it to slow down.

i bled the brakes still the same. is it the brake booster or master cylinder problem?

what can i do? and what kinda oem upgrades would you suggest?

I was planning to bump up to an itr or da master cylinder

Did you get air in the lines? Do you need to pump the brakes to get the car to stop at all?

Are you bleeding the brakes in the right sequence?
