shaky car at idle

I was wondering, when I'm at idle 800rpm, the car shakes a little bit, and the steering wheels does as well. Is this normal? Kinda like I need a timing job.... just curious

The car I test drove a while back exhibited this behavior, so I'm pretty sure its normal!

my car does it too, it only did it after time though so i'm assuming some of the stock bushings must be wearing out and letting more vibration through the car. i dunno, just a guess...

yea my car shakes pretty bad now too. I put in a exedy twin not too long ago and had a lot of chatter when taking off. so then i put a stiffer front motor mount and it helped alot. after i put that in along with some cams my car shakes pretty badly at idle. im thinking i needa check the rear mount now.
