   You do the calipers up tight? But does sound like a driveshaft.

   droplinks or cv joints mate. possibly top mounts.
   warped discs give mad vibration under braking

   That's debatable, the rack could then play up as it did with me

    I had this noise mate was all down to a split cv boot and the grease had all come out and made the CV Joint to be faulty.
    
    So I just replaced it with a new Shaftec Driveshaft for about £40
