Hi guys, I just bought a gsx yesterday and noticed on the way home that it shakes extremely bad when I let off the gas (just coasting in gear). I'm not very familiar with the awd models since I've only owned the gst. Could this be because of bad u joints? It goes away when I accelerate and it doesn't seem to be making any noise. Any help would be appreciated.
Vehicle info:
95 Eclipse Gsx
Catback
Lowering springs
 
When my car start to do that shaking at 60-90 range, for me it means, time to change driveshaft U joints.

If it is not wheel balancing, there's a big possibility it is worn U Joints.
I also own two pickups (nissan, GM), the symptom and cure is the same.
 
Yeah my problem is only at high speeds. Not that I should be driving that fast but once I take it to drags Its better to know how its going to act then not knowing. 75-95mph. I'll check the U-joints this weekend too.
