Juddering under acceleration
#2
Can you elaborate? Does it feel like engine, transmission, suspension or wheels. Mine feels like a vibration from the engine / gearbox area but only at full throttle, in any gear and from mid to high revs. Changed nearly everything I can think of, just put it down to a characteristic of the car.

Could be driveshafts or front prop. Or an engine mount causing driveshaft problems. wouldn't have thought it was a wheel balance problem if it's that bad - you could swap the front wheels to the back to be sure!!
One thing though, you really don't want your front prop going bang!! Get it checked out mate, if you're not sure about it.

pretty much as Kev has already mentioned mate.
engine mounts are a common weakness if the cars lowered a little to much.
drive shafts can destroy the inner CV joints if its been driven like an animal with silly launches.
and as for the front prop going, be gratefull that it only takes out the side of the gearbox when it lets go if thats what it is, when they are spinning at the stupid RPM's they will chop thru everything - and its only inches from your feet!!!!
