Vibrations?

Ive tried everything else I can think of.
Im starting to believe its a bad strut (agx)

It happens under hard acceleration or when going fast (60+) and taking hard turns (slalom) but its when im turning left. The vibrations arent so noticeable when turning to the right at high speed, just left.

Ideas?

I havent been able to do anything to it, for the last week its been in the shop for upgrades and dyno tuning.

After I get it back this week, im doing:
wheel bearings (all)
front control arms (comes with ball joints)
front sway bar links/bushings
inner tie rods
outer tie rods

the new tires did solve part of my vibration problem. The old tires had flat spots from sitting 9 months while i was gone overseas.

I did look it all over when I had it in the air the other weekend, but everything looked and felt ok.

I didnt think about loosening the axle nuts and checking for bearing play though. I just checked for play as it was when i got it in the air.

So Im going to do that. but all that stuff is getting replaced as soon as i have time.

Hey man.Before my 2nd nx was totaled i had a bad axle that would turn in the transmission without turning the wheel sometimes.The boots weren't busted and the wheel bearing was fine.The bearings in the axle itself were bad on the wheel end of the axle.That vibrated while turning too until i replaced the axle.The new one did fine.I hate to say it,but it's either that or your transmission is to blame.Our xe transmission sounds horrible under hard acceleration in a straight line or while turning.
