Vibration isn't speed related more like rpm related. Occurs at very certain rpm. 3-4th gear at 3,500rpm.. and 6th gear at 2,000rpm

Thanks man. These wheels are 17+ years old, could do with a refinish but they are my daily/track wheels now. The stepped lip along with the meaty curved side walls of the PS3 give it a kind of old school tuner look.
I'd really love to get a new set.. or 2nd hand 'new condition' set. But in red like this: These wheels in 5x100 fitment are ridiculously rare now :/

Quik Latch Mini
Fixed up the driveshaft vibration, managed to turn it 90deg. Less vibration, same amount of noise so I'm happy with that.
Changed trans and diff fluid to Motul Gear 300. Also just finished my Quik Latch install. Pics below are self explanatory

Rear bumper removal/clean
Cars up on jack stands again. Bit of late night modding/cleaning.
Removed the RB diffuser from the OEM bumper too for a clean. The back end is filthy. I'll most probably Also ordered 2x red tow straps Will probably modify/dremel the RB diffuser so the car can be towed. Might see if I can use the remaining Quik Latch Mini's I have left on the rear bumper too.

That's awesome. My rear bumper sags a lot, and my front a little bit.
It's a annoying to those who know.

I should be getting these in next week. Whiteline have production issues with their gear so I'm opting to go with these.
Hard-Race front and rear sways with endlinks.

HardRace Sways and LCA's installed
Had the sways installed last week. Definite improvement on cornering and trailbraking. Less squeel on the tyres and I can take sweepers at a faster pace.
HardRace Sways Had these installed today. Haven't been on the track with them yet. HardRace Rear LCA

So what is your new Alignment setup now?
I'm getting my KW Clusport Coilovers with ST Suspension Sway bars on Wednesday and would like to know what you drive! ;-)
