I'm having the same problem. Put rebuilt calipers & new dics all a round with Porterfield R4S. Bleed, bleed, bleed, got speed bleeders, bleed, bleed, bleed, still have the air somewhere in system. Some say it's at the brake proportion valve, some say it's the master cylinder needs to be bench blead (I let the master cylinder go dry once when bleeding brakes). Seems like my problem is at the master cylinder, it's really spongy at the petal. But I've had this problem even before I put the new stuff on, since I got the car about 2 years ago.
Let me know if you find out what it is.
