I fixed my brakes. For one thing I had the rear calipers on the wrong sides of the car. The bleeders need to be at the top when the calipers are installed.

Once I swapped them, I suck out a bunch of air with the Mityvac before the fluid hit.

I also put worm gear clamps on the brake booster.

Now, I have a firm pedal.

The big vacuum line that comes out of the brake booster, it has 4 clamps on it. I replaced those 4 clamps with worm gear style clamps(the one you can tighten with a ratchet or screwdriver)

The thing that fixed my brakes was swapping the rear calipers to the correct side of the car, and then bleeding the air out of the brakes.

alright and by using these gear clamps you just tighten extra tight to get a good vac seal i asume, do you think this helpd your pedal feel or was it the fact that your rear calipers where backwards?

I think it was probably more that the calipers were on the incorrect side of the car at this point.

I have a 1995 SC300
I installed Supra TT Calipers and Rotors.
SC300 has a three bolt master cylinder.
Supra has 2 bolt master cylinder.
Supra brake booster has too long of shaft to the pedal. ~1"

-I cant find any info on this problem-

The SC went to the 2 bolt design on the brake booster from 96. I also did the LS400 brake swap and had the dead pedal feel. I recently installed supra TT rear calipers and stop tech stainless steel braided lines. The car stops impressively now, no more dead pedal feel.
I recommend the TT calipers if you can find some, however the braided steel lines should also make a difference with the dead pedal feel when using the LS400 calipers..
