My guess is improper fluid. If you use the wrong stuff, it can do this. Also if it isn't filled properly and low on fluid.

did you get under it and look at the transmission mounts? mount bracket could be loose, or mounts themselves could be totally deteriorated and worn out.

Motor mounts?

The last few days it hasn't shook, but when it's a cold start sometimes it shifts late and rough until the car is warm...?

Could be the suspension. I had the same problem when changing gear and when the traction control kicked in. It turned out to be the passenger (left) side of car, both shockers were burst. New coilovers on the front and shockers on the rear and haven't felt it since.

Keeping in mind it felt nothing like the suspension and I was positive it was the gears.

kshade40... check and eliminate these first. And move on from there.
