Hey guys and thanks in advance for any help. I just finished swapping my sr in my car and ever since I've got a bad vibration that I didn't have before the swap... I've made the following changes: q45 front brakes, one piece ds from the driveshaft shop, and epoxied the motor mounts. Initially I thought tie rods or alignment so I did both of those but no change. Some people say it's due to epoxied motor mounts but not doing the trans mount... Anyone have any issues after installing any of these??

could be any of the three things you did. you installed stiffer mounts so you'll have noticeable vibration. one piece driveshaft will cause vibration as well since you no longer have any of the vibration dampening provided from the stock one. one or both calipers could not be working properly.

Try you wheel balancing or rack bushings? it could be the drive shaft as well.....think things in motion.....your motor mounts would make the car vibrate but not necessarly at 45....

did you lockup your brakes testing out your new setup?
you may have a flat spot on your tires

I wouldn't think the driveshaft would cause the vibration in the steering wheel?
