Could also be some bad motor or trann mounts too....

Check that and then also look into the axles. and like he ^^ stated get some B series axles.

its possbile it could be an axle, but why would it only shake on acceleration? the axle is always spinning as long as the vehicle is moving,same with the wheel bearing...i personally think its more of an engine/trans mount...

sounds like an axle to me....make sure you get one with a lifetime warrentee...lowered cars eat axles much quicker than stock.

when I swapped my ek with a JDM GSR, I had similar issues. I replaced the axles with Cardone Si units and it's been fine ever since.
