Odd problem, brakes applying themselves...
Still chasing an odd problem with the 90q20vt, which by the way is still for sale. After sitting for a few months the brakes seem to have developed a way to apply themselves, all four corners, when the engine bay gets exceedingly hot (after traffic on a hot day or reefing into boost repeatedly). It will vary in intensity and when the engine bay cools the issue subsides. We bled the brakes through with fresh fluid and this helped the situation, so assuming it's the master cylinder, although before hopping into that job was curious about seeing if anyone with a 90q20v or CQ had experienced this, or anyone with another model for that matter.

Possible Vacuum booster leak
Ive seen that on older hondas theres a good possibility that it could be the booster. As we all know heat causes materials to expand right, if theres a crack or somthing worn out in the booster then there is a possibility that as the booster heats up from the radiant heat from the engine may cause the booster expand slightly enough to allow air into the backside of the diaphram causing the pedal to apply.
