its something with your driveshaft just as you suspected. Sounds just like my Datsun truck. Its fine as long as I don't downshift and slow down with the engine....

My center carrier bearing is ripped appart, so I guess that causes the 2-piece driveshaft to vibrate when pulled slower by the transmission. I forgot if your 240Z has a 1-piece or 2-piece... but it could be a u-joint or something got thrown out of balance. Maybe your differential has a loose mount and is cocked sideways slightly which throws everything off...
