Braking Problems
past couple of days, i've noticed on my 98 civic si that when i press on the brake, the pedal is much stiffer then before and the braking is as smooth when slowing down. any ideas what's wrong? i also feel the gas pedal is abit more stiff as well and loss of power

Check the vacuum line running to the brakebooster.
Disconnected brakebooster would give you a much harder brake pedal in a short amount of time
