Under hard acceleration, the engine tries to twist itself around and flip like a pancake (kinda). I would suspect:

1. loose bolts

2. Engine rubber mounts separated. I believe it would be the left one, facing the car from the front.

The rear is pretty solid when the bolts are tight. Maybe the rubber portion had deteroiated though.
