Brake Help
first off im not really new here i lost my account info :/ anyways thank you guys for all the help in the past, but once again i need help for my 3k
It is a 94 3000gt base model
Reasently my brakes have begun to make the entire car shake when pressed occationaly. The problem is that it is pretty violent when it happens to do it and now i believe it has made the car come out of alinment. Because today i came home and checked my tires and found the inside tread on both front tires extreamly worn and in need of replacment.
Now the issue is i cant figure out what is causing the brakes to shake, i know it is not the rotors because i just replaced them with summit sloted and drilled rotors a few months ago. I took the wheel off today and checked the brake assembly and couldnt find any clear fault, although i noticed alot of rust in the pistons of the caliper and that the brake seemed to be rubbing more on one side.
I think it might be the caliper sticking and not releasing properly or something of that nature but i was wanting to a second opinion and any suggestions would be great.

my car does the same.i got a 95 base model and my car shakes if i press down hard. im thinking it might be the pads. cuz the rail the pads in is bent on mine so the front of the pads are worn more. n the harder i press my brakes the more it straightens out and uses the back of the pads. thats my opinion..

Is day look into replacing the caliper. Something has to be connecting unevenly, and its usually the rotor but if thats been replaced, then I can only think of the caliper (as Id assume you replaced the pads when you went to d/s rotors)
