maybe try inspecting your motor mounts to see if the motor is moving around at that rpm because in mine thats when the car really starts taking off, i ended up switching to a solid mount to prevent it, but I would check your stockers before buying anything(mine looked fine, but maybe yours will show wear)

Other than that, check your air filter, all of your vac connections etc. you may also want to try resetting the ECu(unplug battery and hold down the brake pedal for 15-20 seconds), that has helped me out a few times.
Did you add anything new to your setup recently?

Could be any number of things, is it based solely on RPM or does the car's speed matter?

Just to rule out any alignment/wheel balancing issues.

Could very well be motor mounts like the person above mentioned.

funny you posted this mafia, I just posted in a thread above this one about the same thing. I don't know what it is. How many miles are on your car? I have a lil over 30k on my speed.
