car comes with shit engine mounts lol, add a engine damper, and strut bar might help but it is meant for car stability not to much for the engine.

fully endorse what gagan is saying....however, no matter how hard an engine vibrates, it should not intrude into the cabin(barring diesel engines whose vibrations are known to cause small quakes :P),especially at idle, pronounced engine vibrations can also be indicative of timing faults(not so in the case of distributor less ignition), so if that is the case do not hesitate to get it checked, improperly matched spark plugs(which has larger clearances between the spark plugs) can also cause this condition..!

Engine has more vibrations than I would expect.I have replaced all engine mounts-that helped to some extend of course,but didn't fixed the issue completely.I have try many other non Infiniti cars(test drive)at same age(10y)and mileage(120k)-non of them have that much noticeable vibration at 1000-2000rpm.I can feel those vibration in the steering wheel,seat,etc.Engine has full tune-up: sp. plugs,dist.cap,etc.,no vacuum leaks,cleaned injectors.What's wrong with that engine?Will it last
