did you bleed the rear calipers with the bleed nipple at the highest point? If not you need to undo the caliper and slide it round the disc until it is then bleed it...
Also did you bleed everything with the car jacked up or on the floor?
If it was jacked up the rear load compensators will give the brakes a shit feel

oh ok you didn't say you'd ripped them off... 
not being funny but did you bleed them with the handbrake off? Also with the bleed nipples on the rear at the highest point?

Had very similar problems when I fitted big brakes up front and rear discs...Are you using a pressure bleeding kit? I found the eezibleed kit worked well in the end..
