--Please Help Solve Steering Wheel Shake--

It is a 91 Integra. I recently experiencing steering wheel shake during brakeing and at speed over 100kph. I installed new front tires which eliminated my high speed shaking. I also changed the front rotors and pads. However, the steering wheel still have moderate shaking during normal brakeing. It is my understanding that the rear brake component does not play a role in the steering so I elminated that as a contributing fator. Could it be my caliper, balljoint or tie-rod?

sounds like your rotors are still warped ... even if they are brand new, they can still warp ... did you get brand name rotors? and under heavy braking, does the shaking increase?

did you clean the hubs when you put the new rotors on? use a magnetic base dial gauge and check the runout on your rotors. the specs are in the helms repair manual (they might also be in chilton and haynes)
