I changed the master cylinder, pads, rotors, flushed everything out and the breaks still feel low. Pedal is almost all the way down to stop. What else am i missing? At this point i feel like going with a big break kit. Any recommendations on what else i can do before dropping a bunch of money on breaks i was saving for engine upgrades?

Maybe you need to work on the BRAKES instead of the BREAKS!!

Actually it sounds like you still have air in the system......maybe someone can help you with a sure fire bleeding technique??

Hope you didn't get air into the ABS system.......that can require dealer intervention!!
