Still vibrating during braking after new rotor
I just changed my 1990 ls400 front rotors and break pads to the brembo blank and pads cause before, it vibrated during hard braking on highway.
However after the install it does indeed vibrate less but its not completely gone.
Is there something else I should be looking at to eliminate the slight vibration...
ALSO:
Vibration also occurs when I am traveling at low speeds from 20MPH to STOP, it vibrates very softly and at longer durations then on freeway (obviously), but again it has decreased substantially just not totally..
Please help and thank you in advanced.

goodness...I feel the steering wheel and slightly througout the car as well..what does that mean?
And when you say warped, are you referring to the rotors only or something else can be warped?
Also when you say front end is imbalanced? what part of it is imbalanced?
Please note the vibration is very slight. Maybe I am just over sensitive.

I had the same problem and found that my front ball joints were shot this might not be your problem but if the car is raised off the ground pull up on the front tires and see if you have any play if not the ball joints probably ok.

ran into the same thing with my 92. did pretty much the same things you did and found it was the beginning of my lower ball joints going bad. First gens are notorious for eating them up. Have them checked.
