When you steal a car, you tend not to use the brakes much....

I was the running the Porterfields and stainless steel brake lines and had alot of stop and go traffic. They performed excellent.

I read something recently from Brembo that goes against the common knowledge of brake issues-

They stated that rotors rarely warp!  That was followed with, the pulsing feel is almost always caused by a build up of crud on the brake pad. 

If this is so, the condition of your RF brake sounds like:
sticking caliper causing excess heat;
heat resulting in breakdown of pad matrix, creating thick/thin areas on the pad surface;
culminating in a pulsing pedal feel.

For what its worth!

Funny cause when you look at the rotor, thats what it looks like too.

Sorry, BSS, but are you saying the rotor does look warped or does not look warped?

BSS if you have access  to infrared temperature gun. You can tell if & what caliper is hanging up. It what I use when I had the same problem with my Subaru Legacy GT. I had 114k on the original calipers & rotors.  Took the car for drive, with a lot of stops. Take temp of rotors & calipers.  The rears was under 300F an with in 20F of each other. The front DS was of the chart (I.F. Gun max out at 600F) PS was over 500F. I found out that both bottom front caliper pistons was seized. Replace Calipers, rotors, & pads, problem solved.

I am putting a high percentage on it being just your pads.
Go throw the proper bedding procedures with the new ones and go from there
