My car:

Stock sohc KA
5MT
J30 lsd

Any info would be greatly appreciated.
I would say get it. I got one back when I had the same set up as you.
I was also worried about vibrations but I feel the one piece is a lot smoother than the stock 2piece.

I now have the 1piece steel DS with DriftFreaq's solid mounts and a SPEC stage 3 clutch and I don't have any vibrations.
Though I know the "diff ear" bushings on my J30 diff are gone. I know ShaftMasters can rebalance the DS free of charge,
you just have to pay for shipping in which case it would be cheaper to find a local spot that can do it for you.
