Ive uprated my brakes from a 1.2 8v to the 2.0 ltr setup off a calibra, bled the system once but the braking is still spongy wondering if it just needs a few more bleeds or could it be another prolem like the servo as the braking was equally as spongy before? thanks in advance

No didnt bleed the rears thought seein as though the car had been up on axle stands on the front for a night the air should be more in the front and shouldnt or got into the rears as air would only of got in the front?Think il bleed the whole system again and might even need the shoes on the back changing so guna c if that helps, still seem worse than they should be for just a bleed??

The brakes are in diagonal pairs IIRC and haynes also reccommends doing them in diagonal pairs.
