92 Prizm Brake Problems!!!
Ok, i am stumped at this point, 3 days ago my brake pedal went to the floor and lost about 75% of my stopping ability. i have replaced the front pads, both rotors, both calipers, and today a brand new master cylinder in it. i have completly bled the system with all new fluid and yet my pedal still goes to the floor. does anyone here know what it could be? i just spent over $300 in new parts and still no luck. it doesn't leak fluid anywhere, i am stumped and getting upset with this POS car lol! please help .. thank you

Yeah its your rear Shoes and Drums. Replace them. There was probably nothing wrong with the fronts or the master.

Re: 92 Prizm Brake Problems!!!
it was the pad clip that goes btwn the pad and the caliper. allows the pad to slide.. without it the pad was not moving with the caliper it was sitting in 1 place on the rotor..
