warped rotors would be my guess, when was the last time your brakes were done?

they most often warp because the lug nuts are not tightened evenly

gs-r's don't come with drums, neither do base model integras (not sure if its an option to make it cheaper though)

either way.. warped drums would cause the chassis to shake more than the steering wheel, warped rotors cause the steering wheel to shake. I'd check both. Drums can be machined a few times throughout their life, rotors cannot, so if get the drums cut (assuming they are still in spec) and check out the life of the shoes (if you do have drums)
