    It could be in the transmission. Have you tried running it up to speed with the shat out of it?

    Gearbox mount? Clutch? Too easy…
    It should be something that will make you remove gearbox to fix. Otherwise it's not fun ;)))

    Have you checked your pinion angle? It could be what's wrecking your other driveshafts. Also have a look at your rear end bushings. It could have some play in it

    I can't remember if you've removed the diff damper, but they're known to come loose on high HP builds.

    Measure the driveshaft Runout.

    Have you checked the alignment of the engine compared to the diff.? It is possible your pinion angle is correct, but the side to side alignment is off. If you have a laser pointer, you can use the output shaft on the trans. and shoot the laser at the diff. It should land pretty close to center of the diff. It could be your subframe or motor mounts on the subframe are cocked. Having the angle off side to side can cause the driveshaft to bind and the bind can cause a vibration.

    What coil overs and wheels should I get for my red na Miata?

    So it's not the driveshaft. Wheels? transmission? clutch/flywheel? Diff?

    Instead of Miata Dad I’m gonna start calling you Shaft Daddy.

    Joking aside, I hope you get it figured out.

    My guess is transmission output shaft bearing or differential pinion bearing damage.

    By the way, congrats on your very impressive track run in Canada – eh! Seriously, you did yourself proud.

    that's a nice looking black shaft.

    Worst kinda of problem is the one were you have to put everything together and drive to test it. Just to take it all apart again and adjust something random and see if that was it.

    I talked with David about this the other day. As a test- put an elastic band around the metal adapter and see if that helps. My guess is it will. It’s probably a harmonic frequency that can be dampened rather than trying not to create it.
