So I bought an automatic 93 LX coupe in November. Its got 181,000 km as of right now, I think thats like 112,500 miles. Its been babied for its whole life except for its final year with its previous owners, it was left parked outside for a year. When the car is not in gear (when its in park or neutral) everything is fine, when the car is put into any gear (1,2,D3,D4, R) the steering wheel vibrates like crazy, this stops when the engine rpm is higher than idle, so pretty much whenever its moving. recently I did an oil change, using castrol's high mileage synthetic blend oil, Afterwards it sort of felt like the vibrations were significantly reduced, not sure whether that was actually the case or I was imagining things, but a week later the vibrating felt to be pretty bad again. Any idea what could be causing this?

Is the engine shuddering as well, or is it running fine other than the vibrations? Does the car have a check engine light? Do you see any engine mounts that are noticeably more worn or torn than the rest?My Members' Ride Thread - It's a marathon build, not a sprint. But keep me honest on the update frequency!

Your motor mount/s could be toast. Check all of the mounts and replace if necessary.
I would definitely check the front mount (right next to the header). This usually causes the vibration at a stop in gear.

But because of this, my local mechanics and used part depots dont carry alot of CB7 parts, and shipping is usually ridiculously expensive, $50 cb7 bumper cover, shipping $400, Thats more than what I paid for the car! anyways, off topic, Any ideas of where I could find engine mounts for a reasonable price if that does end up being the problem?
the part you will probably need
Quick check of shipping costs shows a $8.99 charge to ship from US to Canada.
FYI, shipping a bumper would cost a lot no matter where you lived.
