brake upgrade

I have a 95 del sol Si that I installed integra front brakes on. My brakes feels kinda spongy compared to say a new car. I have bled the brakes correctly and have read about upgrading the master cylinder.... Will that help? And if not, should I do it anyway?

get a MC from a 91 civic 4-door EX. it's a 15/16" unit. it'll push plenty of fluid for you.

well, i did a gsr rear disc brake conversion, now the brakes feel even more spongy, even after bleeding. I think i am going to get a master cylinder from an integra, and i heard something about changing out the proportioning valve also.
