98 240sx no brakes

The problem started when the right rear caliper was leaking fluid around the the piston. I bought two rebuilt calipers one for each side, was worried about the new one being better then the old one. Got everything mounted and gravity bleed and the traditional pump the pedal and hold while someone else opened the bleeder, until there was no bubbles. Pedal felt stiff went to start the car no pressure, put the car on jack stands with out tires and tried to stop nothing no pressure at all. The pistons on the calipers didn't even move (you can push the calipers side to side).

Talked to several people who said to check the booster, still have vacuum there so I was told I'm good. Some people told me its the master cylinder, that's replaced hooked up the lines and gravity bleed all the lines fluid came out all of them but the passenger front. I thought the fluid was from the master cylinder but I drained the line. Double checked that everything is hooked up right which it is (FSM) and checked that fluid is coming out of the port. Disconnected the hard line from the rubber hose in the wheel well and the cylinder, I blew air down the hard line and heard fluid come out. Connected everything again and still no fluid. Please oh please help me as I'm starting to loose faith in the car and wanting to sell her.

Is the car equipped with ABS?

Thankyou for responding I had forgotten that I had posted here. I actually fixed it my self. After replacing the master cylinder I ended up bench bleeding it for over 4 hours. Watched 2 movies while I was bleeding andwatching bubbles in the fluid.

So ensure you bench bleed the carp out of the master cylinder, and all lines, and calipers.
