Well as I bought my new DSM, there was a slight vibration. He told me the driveline was replaced and the motor was replaced with a 6 bolt since this was a 94 GSX. Well more and more driving I notice the vibration problem more and more. 1st and 2nd gear the car is mostly fine, maybe a LITTLE vibration after 3-3500RPM, but as I get higher in gears in 3rd 4th and 5th, the vibration gets worse and worse after 3-3500RPM. I dont htink its the balance shafts because if it was, it would be a constant vibration at a certain RPM through every gear, and the more you accel in the gear the harder it vibrates. In 4th gear the car gets really bad at full boost and feels like your sitting in a massage chair. It rattles everything in the car. I checked the U-Joints at work and they seemt o be fine, but I noticed that on every carrier bearing there was oil or grease slung up on the underside of the car. It almost feels like it happens mainly under boost, but I had an idea and thought it may have been the 14b out of balance so I went ahead and bought a used E316g, and the problem is still there.

The car has a wierd squeaking noise when you let the engine brake itself to slow down especially in lower gear, but when you give it some throttle it goes away, almost feels like two circular or rotary things are rubing metal to metal in a certain sop making a squeak squeak squeak noise. This ONLY does it when you have it in gear and let off the throttle and the car is braking with the engine. Also it does it in reverse as well, the only difference is when you GIVE it gas the squeaking gets worse and you can really hear it, it doesnt go away when gas is given. It's not the brakes, I checked them, and just resurfaced the two front rotors since when I bought the car they were warped. The car is in really good condition and has a good strong motor other than these two problems, the underside of the engine is really clean and dry no leaks etc etc its a JDM cyclone motor 6-bolt with 60k on it from Japan, yeah yeah people have thier opinions about JDM engine but whatever, 120k on the body and 60k on the motor all stock other than a boost controller when I bought it.
Any ideas?
