I'm assuming you car is a 5 speed and it is later then 84.
The front motor mount, just behind the radiator, is prone to breaking There is a part that is shaped like this...
_ _
\__/
and it has two bolts going through it from the top. It is the weak link and everyone knows that breaks whenever somebody drops the clutch.
You'll need to put a jack under the engine to remove the weight and you will probably need a large (7 mm? 8 mm?) Allen wrench to remove the bolt that goes horizontally through the large rubber doughnut.
I've had to replace this on every 5 speed I've bought. But you'll love it when you are done, the shaking goes away.
Good luck.
