So doing some experimenting, no correlation between RPM or Speed or Gear. Last night and this morning if I took up the freeplay on the pedal and I'd feel the vibration at 40mph in 4th gear, this afternoon same everything and its perfectly smooth.

Next steps:
Grease CMC/pedal connection (found an old post where someone said that fixed his vibration)
Bleed the System
Polish the Slave

I can attest that my clutch pedal felt weird on some days, and normal on others, back when my slave had a HUGE nipple.

Do try sanding down the nipple, regreasing, bleed and report back.

Will do, I will be surprised if it's that bad, I polished it and regressed about 20k ago. Also my old car had a bad nipple on the slave and while it felt weird this isn't exactly how it felt.

Hate leaving stuff unanswered, finally got off my lazy butt and changed out the clutch slave and that's pretty much solved it. I still have slight vibrations but nothing more than I get through any other pedal.

No nipple on the slave, completely smooth, grease was definitely breaking down as well. Grabbed a brand new ap1 slave for $50 so hard to argue with going brand new.
