Steering play, and Brakes...

hey all

If im going down a hill, or lets say im like 60km/h or whatever and I hit the brakes, u know u give the right amount of brake pressure to stop it nice and slow , but when I brake my car just gets these vibrations, there not bad but Its the brakes 100% sure but what needs replacing? I had the brakes done before winter started. LIke the brakes are fine... so whats the problem?

Also now, when I bought my car the stearing was all messed up, so I got it all fixed and aligned and evertyhing, now my steering has a lot of play, and it feels weird like I dont have the tight quick stearing I should have with a sports car.

I'm by no means an expert, but it sounds like you have warped rotors. I know from previous experience, cheap rotors can cause shaking in the front end, even if they've been replaced weeks before.
Another thing that it could be is maybe your steering box has loosened up a bit? maybe the bolts that hold it to the frame? I know there are other adjustments for the steering box, but I dont think you'd need to resort to that.
Maybe you haven't greased alot of the fittings for the front end that should have been, causing the front end to slowly wear out?

correct me if I'm wrong, hope it helps ya out,
