Uneven brake pressure!

I have an 08 Civic, LX. I changed the brake pads about three weeks ago. Since then when I drive hard on the brakes I notice the front driver's side brakes engage more than the front passanger side; In that, the odor of hot brakes, and the heat of the brake is noticably stronger on the driver's side. I have blead the brake fluid in all four lines twice. There is no play in the brake pedal, the car does not pull to the driver's side when braking, the caliper pins move freely and appear well lubricated, and the brake piston in easily compressed and does not appear faulty. I can't figure it out, and it's driving me crazy! Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Like above, check the sliding pins, and piston.
