I was wondering if there are any signs of the axles going or is it you just wake up one day, go to drive your car, and can't move?

The reason I ask is because I notice that when I first start out accelerating from a stop there is a lot of shaking, it almost feels like wheel hop. This is during normal driving not racing.

Also does anyone remember what parts are used for upgrading to the 00-01 5th gen clutch?

 

Check the CV boots and if they're torn, well I'll let you figure that out. Also if it exhibits clicking during a turn, than that's typically a sign they're on their way out.

Sounds like you may have something wrong with your drivetrain, i.e engine mount, loose/poopy control arm bushing etc. Best bet, buy a haynes and inspect your suspension and drivetrain component.s.
