#33030, "brakes not locking up like they should"




          

Ok the other day i got in a minor fender bender the other day (bitch stopped short not really any major damage) but the weird thing is my wheels did not lock up like they should have. Since the accident i bled the system and popped out the pads inspected them and the rotors all seem fine but when i took it for a spin and tried to lock it up it seems like only the passenger side is locking up. I am thinking buy new pads and rotors anyway to see if that helps. Pedal will go all the way to the floor and there is resistance but kind of a spongy feeling to it. I am kind of leaning toward the brake booster possible vac leak maybe i have my vac box teed off of it.

info on current setup
-i4 w/rear drums (so bigger brake booster)
-base model so no abs
-gsx calipers(three years old)
-dba 4000 Series Rotors(three years old)
-hawk HPS Street brake pads(three years old)

brake are not that old and still have about 1/4 pad left on both sides
