just like it says... whether im in 2nd or third.. the whole car shakes rite around 30 miles an hour.. anyone know? thanks

could be a number of things..check the lugs are torqued, check axles, check tires.

 

check the brakes too, happened to a buddy of mine where the calipers were sticking and not fully disengaging and it made the car shake and shimmy violently @ 30mph.

 

Axle.

 

the axle? how do u mean? i used the place racing mount kit. and i have the RAXLES axles.... everything is torqued to specs..

 

how's your alignment?

 

axle

 

this could be your problem. i've heard of people having trouble when using place racing mounts w/ raxles..raxles..as good as they are..are made to go w/ hasport mount kits. which intermediate shaft are you using? raxles are made to go w/ the SiR intermediate shaft. if i were you i'd look for a 90-91 integra intermediate shaft and axles..that should fix your problem.

 

well.. the alignment is ok. the car drives straight

im using the prelude intermediate shaft.. and marty at raxles said this would be good.. so. thats what i used..
hmm.. might try that.. find some different ones... but this wont hurt my car in the long run will it? driving with that shaking ?

 

the prelude shaft from a b20a? never heard of anyone using that before..chuck that piece and get you either an SiR shaft to work w/ those raxles (assuming they are SiR axles) or get you a 90-91 teg setup w/ axles and intermediate shaft. i wouldn't drive around too long on a bum setup, sounds like you could damage the tranny or mounts if you aren't careful.

 

i have the same problem. car shakes like your spinng tires at 30mph. i have changed axles, (three times) wheels, (four sets) and the aliment is only off on camber. I think it may be the clutch, or maybe the flywheel. what clutch are you using? did you have your flywheel turned down at all????

 

b20? what?.. my intermediate shaft is from the prelude.. the stock h22a shaft that came with the motor. and im using the stock clutch and the stock flywheel. i took the clutch and flywheel off for a while when the motor was sitting.. then i put it back on and we torqued everything to specs.

 

clutch or flywheel? your joking right?
check your wheelbearings and caster alingments (if you havent)
then replace your rotors and brake pads and if that dosent work, it has to be axle related.
if its a b series what about the intermediate shaft?
did you ever adjust the axles after you replaced them? some require andle asjusting and crap

 

wheel bearings and rotors....
i went through 4 months of trouble shooting my car for a stupid *** $35 wheel bearing.. bought new motor mounts,calipers,rotors,springs,struts,lower control arm,axles,intermediate shaft you name it ...its new!! after everything it turned out to be a wheel bearing...It sucked.......BIG TIME!!
If you know you have the right axles this would be the next thing to check..
I had 4 alignments plus all the new parts before I figured it out..problem was I had already done the wheel bearings prior to motor swap..just had a bad part that seperated at the housing..

 

i would second the axle. Turbointegra just broke his and described the same symptoms to me yesterday, excpet his car began to shake around 40mph. HTH

wheel berrings? ill have to check that..
and the axles i neva adjusted.. i just put them in. i didnt know u can adjust them. how do u do this?
and then how do i know if it is the axles? what do i look for?

 

wheel bearings i never thought of. never had the problem untill i did the swap. car sat for about 4 months, then right out of the shop, there it was. if you speed up just right i can make it act just fine (no shake) but other than that it just shakes from 30-40mph or so. it does it in every gear just 2nd, 3rd seem to show it the worst.

 

sorry, i thought you were doing a b-series swap nope, the intermediate shaft and axles sound like you have the right ones...
