make sure your vacuum hose for the master cylinder is in good condition it could be a vacuum leak

I don't know if it might help any, but when I put my Ls in my crx, my brakes were like super soft, I could push them to the floor without them stopping me. After a few days they were back to normal, I never took anything off having to do with the brakes either. I'm guessing I must have hit the master cylinder with the engine when I was putting it in. -Ben

Oh sorry I don't know how I forgot to tell you, your master cylinder is on the firewall, its where you would put brake fluid in, that whole assembly, you can get a rebuild kit from Discount Auto, or just a new master cylinder, We sell both there. They have a major variation in prices, I've sold some that were 20 and some that were 90, it just depends on the car. -Ben
