idel and starting issues: 2004 rx8

So my car takes a while to start which is pretty scary and along with that it vibrates hard on 1k rpm. once you go over 1k or are just sitting it doesnt viberate.

I saw a video and some stuff saying if i put a series 2 starter it will help along with a new battery.

as far as the vibrating I have no idea ???

How many miles do you have in the car? There are factors to consider; vacuum leak, ignition problem, dirty ESS MAF or IAT, broken motor mount(s), etc.
