Sup guys, so I finished my SR swap about a week ago and I've been driving it around a bit. I'm getting some serious vibration in my car. 1st - 3rd gear is alright. The car shakes/vibrates enough to distort my vision outside of my rear view mirror; it's fairly shaky so when driving around, looking through my rear view, everything is blurry/distorted due to vibration.

Then once in 4th, and on decel for the most part, it vibrates A LOT. Enough to move my rear view mirror out of position. You can feel it within the whole car and you can even hear the vibration noise. Getting into 5th doesn't help much either, it still vibrates a shit ton. I will try and get a video of it up but it's pretty hard to capture on video I would think.

This never happened before I did my swap.

Background of my car:

1995 240sx base model
Converted to Manual
Blacktop SR20DET with basic bolt ons, i.e. cat back, intake, etc.

When I did do my swap though I just got some stock SR20 motor mounts from a buddy of mine. The tranny mount I got was from a member on here when I got the cross member as well. Could it be that I need to replace my mounts? Figured that they are probably old and shot, thus creating a lot of vibration but I am not 100% sure. Any input would be great! I'll try and get some video today.

It's either the motor/tranny mounts, carrier bearing on the driveshaft, or the driveshaft dampener is shot. I blew out 4 dampeners myself and just got a one piece shaft.

I'm gonna check my drive shaft today. I got my drive shaft from someone else, and seeing as how I just found out that my Clutch master is leaking, and I got it from the same guy, my drive shaft could be shitty. Fuck!
