If the rotors are fine, you might have an alignement issue. Toe-ou in the front will create that "unstable" feeling during hard braking. Have you checked your alignment lately?
I had the car up on jack stand and check the pads and rotor after the track day, rotor was fine but there was uneven wear from the brake pads.

I will do another double check when i get a chance on the weekend.

and I just got my alignment about 3 months ago when I installed my RCE Yellow, it should be 0 toe in front.


Thanks
