help with brake'n'shake

I've got a '93 gxe with the stock brakes and I'm getting some front-end vibration when I brake. I'm afraid my rotors might be warped. Anyone have any alternate ideas? How much is this one gonna cost?

i think you nailed it. rotors can cost anywhere from $50 front/$30 rear... to $175 front/$130 rear

one thing is when you wash you car... let the rotors coll before you start. but again i think you know it might warped. maybe bleed the brakes

i had this same problem. if you want to go the cheap route get them resurfaced if possible. mine were too thin to resurface. if not they are about 20-40 apiece. i spent 300 to get all 4 done on mine.resurface is about 15 a rotor i think. i bet this is your problem. you will probably need new pads too cause bad rotors tend to eat them for a snack. good luck!
