yeah sounds like your motor mount(s) are gone. Check for cracks and figure out which ones you need.
The one on on the buttom closer to the radiator went out on mine, and since my car turned 100K miles I decided to replaced both of the buttom ones even do it wasn't necessary to replace the rear one. I got them for 100 bucks a piece at my local Nissan dealer, and installation only took about 2 hours.
I removed the bolts from the engine mounts, then dropped the engine cradle to replaced both at the same time. Not as bad as it sounds, just make sure to support your engine from the tranny case with a jack and a piece of wood between the tranny and the jack
