Vibration felt in footwell area (pedals)

Please see signature for list of mods I have.

I'm getting slight vibration that I don't remember the car ever having, when cruising, rev it up. It can be felt thru brake and gas pedal. Just enough to bother me. It's slight when cruising and more noticeable when accelerating.

I checked the exhaust multiple times for any contact and don't see any. The exhaust clears the tunnel brace.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Could be a slow burnout of the exhaust and it being caused by the sound reverbing under the car from the mufflers vibrating.

Still getting vibration. Only thing I can think of is the header on the passenger side is almost touching the frame (more up top, not at the bottom of the car). The exhaust clears the tunnel brace (I have a aftermarket one).

Going to change out my coilovers soon. So I guess will relook at everything.

Just a thought how many miles? And do you get into it much? If yes then also take a look at your motor mounts...the mod'd TQ on these motors can wear them out...also your clutch...sorry to say...you don't list an upgraded unit so if the flywheel is gettin worn could be losin balance ergo...vibration....good luck!

btw - check ALL the bolts in the entire drive train...

The vibration is more pronounced when you rev it or higher rpms when cruising.

The car is coming up on 51k miles. The clutch is stock and original.

What should I be looking for on the motor mounts? to tell if they are bad...

I looked at the driveshaft bolts in the past and nothing obvious.

So you doubt it's from the passenger header? Is it possible to shift the motor a tad?

Thanks man

bad motor mount would typically leak oil...when I put in the prothane mounts there was not much wiggle room...if the header is touching usually have to take it back off and "dimple" the area...old school is use a deep socket of appropriate diameter and smack it with a dead blow hammer...makes a smooth dimple and usually enough to make room...good luck...
