under mid to hard braking my n/s/r caliper is seriously vibrating i have replaced the pads and the caliper itself but its still doing it, it's very noisy and quite embarrassing, any ideas?

Whats it doing?, squeeling?... has it got the metal shims in between the pad and the piston?...failing that put some anti squeel stuff on (you can either get the proper stuff or just use some copper slyp)

As you are getting vibration from the n/s/r caliper have you checked the disc ?

Take caly and pads off and spin the disk c if its bent.Even a lttl movement can cause it.
