my 3i did that, turned out to be a damaged c.v joint which eventually broke, but if youve renewed them im not sure. its obviously something to do with wheels, driveshafts as its only happening at high speed.

i damaged the cv when dropping the engine back in at the gearbox end and it just vibrated bad and eventually broke, changed it and it was like another car.
