Default Problem With Brakes

Whats up guys, I got a question i recently bled the air out of my ABS system on my 95 gsr and ever since then my brakes are spongy every now and then. Is it related or is my master cylinder going bad?
Also on an unrelated topic how rare is a 95 4-door gsr. Just curious. Thanks

R U sure you bled them properly? I just bled all my calipers and clutch today, although I did not bleed the ABS. My car is a 95 LS SE.
My brakes are nice and solid just like they should be.
I presume that you bled the little nipple on the top of the ABS? If so make sure that you use a length of hose plugged over it and that you always re-tighten the bleed nipple before you take off the hose, there should be clean clear and bubble free brake fluid from the container you are bleeding it out to right up to the bleed nipple.

Yeah everything checked out there but air got in there again so i assume that i have a hole or leak somewhere b/c it worked great for about a week then i could hear the noise again and now its just intermitten sponge. The brakes worked fine before this so i assume that the two are connected.
