Well, i have a problem with my car...

whenever i go over 100 my car starts to shake. when i reach 120 it really starts to shake. Does any body have any idea what might be wrong with my car. the shaking seems to be totally dependent on the speed as it doesn't matter how many revs the car is doing.

i suppose it's got something to do with the suspension? as a prblm with the motor would be more to do with revs than speed

Any ideas?

cheers dude!

I had this problem but even a ballance did not fix it. I thought it may be a buckled wheel but I found out most mags are not made to be vehicle spacific and hub sizes will vary from car to car. You could try Hub locaters. These are small plastic rings that sit in your wheels and this leaves no gap between the wheel and hub. It worked for me but because I had driven with the shudder for a while the tyres needed changing because they were worn unevenly. With new tyres and the hub locaters I dont have the problem anymore.

Hope this helps.

umm i had exactly the same problem..i got my car wheel balanced and also the hub locater thingy done and the problem was still there.

What i foudn was that my rear side mirror was the thing shaking. I always thought that my back window was shaking sso i was like wTF???...but den i figured my rear side mirror shakes whenever i go over 100. I have no idea why tho.......i still have figured out how to fix this...its quite weird actually

no, i got my wheels balanced yesterday, all of them where slightly out, but they had all been balanced by the previous owner. now the car is not shaking anymore. But yeah my side mirrors, and rear view mirror have been shaking too. But at least the car isn't shaking?

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
