Question when i brake, the car turn..

when i brake at high speed, the car turn a bit to the left, and create an unbalance dangeroun on the wet. why??
I use Project Mu HC Brake pad, front + rear.
It do that only when the brake are hot, at cold temperature, no problem.
For hot temperature i don't mean overheat, just the exercise temperature whe the brake start to brake very hard with a low foot strong on the pedal.
Anyone can help me to find a solution?????

I would suggest getting an alignment. If that doesn't do it, you may have warped rotors.

Could have a bad caliper but try swapping the front pads first. (right to left)

this would be my guess.

have you noticed a difference in the amount of brake dust on the left and right front wheels?

Alignment, warped rotors, a stuck caliper piston, or a kinked brake hardline can do that.
