I did a search but little info came up beside's balancing the wheels which I've already done. Like the title says my car is shaking/vibrating only under acceleration and get's worse as I increase the throttle. I can be cruising down the interstate or just down a road in gear and it won't do it, its only when I accelerate or come from a stop. It feels like its just in the front too. Any idea's on what this could be? Like I said I just balanced my wheels today and it didn't help at all.
 
I had the same thing happen to me and it was my driver side axle boot, it was torn and had no grease in it and it got all torn up. I also replaced the U-joints on the driveshaft. Get the yoke replacement kit from JNZtuning, it comes with the yoke and a U-joint. They cost $33 a peice, so buy three of them. I also did the silicone fix and it vibrates over 60mph, it feels like solid motor mounts. But those fixed the problem I was having and I am pretty sure that it is yours too. I would start with the front axle and then drive it to see if it is fixed, and while the car is jecked up check the driveshaft for any play to see if the bearings are worn. Good luck:thumb:

I need the front u joint at the tranny and the rear u joint at the diff, went to jnz and I am not sure exactly what I need.
Got a link/part number or exact name?
 
Mine did this as well only to find out my harmonic balancer was vibrating like a bi*** back and forth.
 
I might as well add. My car did the same thing until I disconnected the ebake cables from the rear brake calipers. Seams they were hung just enough and my warped rear rotors were causing the entire car to vibrate.
