bad vibration in entire frame

Car:
94 Talon awd, 7 bolt/4 bolt. 16g. stock inj. Balance shafts not eliminated.

Problem:
At any speed, there is a bad vibration that goes through the dash all the time, sometimes the windows, the center console all the time, and sometimes the windshield. This does not happen at idle and happens rarely when in cruise (when I say cruise, I mean the cruise control is actually set, not just holding doen the accelerator constant). At all other times the vibration exists.

History of this car:
The previous owner experienced a different vibration - he thought it was a timing belt problem but ended up changing the tranny and tcase. That fixed his problem.
Also, the car has 132k - timing belt was changed at 90k.

Prior experience (not sure if it applies to this case):
97 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT - had a vibration coming from the engine bay and the car was shaking at idle. Turned out to be a timing belt jump. Got lucky since thats a horiz opposed design so just had to change out the timing belt at the dealership.
97 acura legend - same vibration in windshield, windows, etc - turned out to be wheel bearings going bad. Buddy's car with 150k.


Suggestions, anybody?
