Does it start to happen at a certain RPM?

could be high spots on the brake disc's, maybe a disc machining and a calliper rebuild.

Maybe your engine mounts shattered because the thieves thrashed it around too much and couldn't resist vtec :P

One of the wheels buckled from impact? They might have hit a gutter or something

Jack up the car and freespin each wheel,check for buckles
