Default help in santee

So I'm new to being a z owner, but I bought it from some shady shop. Only had it about 6 months, and now I'm having an issue I can't solve.

Its an 03, and its shaking really really badly, I have done a few things to it in attempts of fixing it but nothing has worked. I'm suspecting motor mounts now since it is t throwing any codes, but I would love someone who is more seasoned in this stuff to give me some advice. So if your in the area and wouldnt mind helping me out I would be extremely grateful.

Just pm me if you would like some more info

Brakes? Wheels? Axles?

None of those. It shakes during idle, as well as driving, but I know its nothing like wheels or suspension or anything because of that.

Well like I said I just bought it a few months back, but I do remember the dealer saying that it had a new clutch. And no I don't recall it getting worse and worse, just suddenly was there while I was driving on the freeway one day.
No grinding during idle, but due to the shaking when I shift it grinds sometimes (and no I'm not just a beginner who doesn't know how to shift)

Check out the motor mounts and transmission mount. Check the drive shaft while you're at it, too.

Ya I had the tranny mount checked at a shop, and they said it was all good. I have looked at and felt around my mounts, but without taking them off I can't tell.
What would be wrong with the drive shaft that would make it shake at idle?
