Default steering wheel shake at high speed?

so i go a 96 ek coupe, recently changed brake pads, after i put the wheels back on the steering wheel shakes once u drive over 65, it won't shake while you brake. wonder if I screw up the wheel weight? will a wheel balance solve my problem? also when i change my brake pads my piston fell off, i try so hard to put it back into the caliper, wonder why this happens and will there be a problem with that? thanks

Are your lug nuts torqued to spec?
If your piston fell out I would get a rebuilt caliper. Theyre not that expensive.

You have an EJ, not an EK.

Check lug nuts, check for bent/damaged wheels. Check condition of tires/pressure.

Have wheels balanced, have alignment checked.

Replace that caliper.
