Hey guys, I recently did a 5 stud conversion on my ek4. The thing is, my car is equipped with abs, the conversion isn't.
I did a good amount of research before doing the conversion but i couldn't find any.
Anyways, so I started with the rear trailing arms and brakes. Once bolted on, I bled the brakes and noticed the pedal was very spongy and didn't feel like it had any force, the pedal literally just sunk to the floor as if I had a burst brake line.
I checked for leaks, everything checked out good. Can't think of anything that could cause this other than the abs system affecting the brakes?
The thing is, The brakes are engaging but it's very weak. As I depress the brake pedal, it'll just sink down untill the very bottom I can feel the brakes engaging.
My set up:
98 DC2 front and rear hubs/spindle
EP3 front calipers, rotors and pads
DC5 R rear calipers and pads
CL7/9 accord rear rotors
