my uncle just bought a celica recently, now the car shakes or vibrate a lot. this happens mostly when we are driving above the speed limit of 15 and give it gas. the only issues that the car has right now is dead shocks. what im thinking of is the bearings.... but im not sure and want to discuss it on here. i just want to see if anyone of you guys here have this problem and may help me figure what is wrong. thank you -john

It could be your drive shaft. I just had this problem, it's been ongoing for the past 6moths but got worse this past week. Got it looked at during the summer and it was wearing.

As I accelerated above 30mph i got this sudden vibration. Replaced my drive shaft and problem solved.
Signs to look for: torn rubber boot covering the knuckle. It was vibrating because the boot was torn and the grease basically "dried" out.
