Default brakes please help

I recently replaced my rear hard lines and added front type r calipers . Ok I bled my brakes a ton of different ways . The pedal is hard when car is off but when on goes to floor but with resistance. I keep getting air out of the pass front caliper no matter how many times I bleed it all other lines no air. Whats could be causing this . Had same setup on old car and pedal was great. Its a 98 civic ex non abs. Please help__________________

If you keep getting air out of the pass front caliper, then that caliper and/or surrounding areas are not 100% sealed. Check, double check, and triple check pass front caliper on back 'till you find the area air is getting in. Sometimes brake hoses look good on the outside but are rotten on the inside. Maybe?!?!?

Ok I replaced that caliper before same exact symptoms also tried a pressurized vacuum bleeder and air just kep pouring out n of all bleeders exept the front left ibused 3 quarts of fluid I bled around the master and prop valve also . Guess prob the seal around the bleeder wasn't good using the mityvac maybe. I have no leaks and brakes were fine before I put the type r front brakes on and ran new rear hardlines
