Do your brakes make any noises? I dont know if worn brakes cause much vibration, more so you'll notice decreased stopping performance and noise/sqeaking.

It could definitely be an alignment issue.

If it's only while braking it's your rotors, they're warped. I have the same issue. Stock Nissan rotors are garbage, all 3 of my Nissan's have warped the OEM rotors before 30k. I'm planning on doing my brake upgrade over the winter.

Yeah, typically shaking when braking = warped rotors. Shaking at higher speeds (not braking) = wheel balance.

I'm loving my Z1 2 piece! Not a fan of Z1 in general because of the oil cooler crap they pulled on me, but these seem solid!
