Hi guys, actually I don't know when that problem came, my friend who is driving my car told me that my car in the burn out pulling to right side and this also happen when I kick the car in the street once the boost go up it turns into right so I have to use the stearing to let it be in the straigh, I've changed everything which might be the problem and still getting the same problem.

Here what I have done, two times wheel balance,wheel alighment,camber and caster and the car is going straight but once the turbo pull or a wheel spin it pulls right side!?

I changed my quaife because I thought the problem because of that, at the same time I changed every single rubber under the car by getting the master kit and I'm still getting the same problem.

I got my car with TANABE coil over system actually I don't know what could do that, I also replaced all the rotors and all the break pad thinking there is a brake which was locking once side but everything seemed to be okay

My car is totaly new every single thing I've changed was new but I still have the same problem, I even changed the knockle arm and changed all the tires turning to PS-2 tires 235/18/40 michelin tires

Actually I have nothing to check, I don't want to replace the coil over then this would not be the problem

Can anyone help me out so I can fix the problem, has anyone got that problem?

Thanks
 
Dude, 547 hp? Ever hear of torque steer? Have you checked your tie rod ends? Ball joints?
 
i think with that much hp on a fwd, even a LSD isnt going to be able to make up for it, especially if youre on street tires, assuming that 10sec run in your sig was on slicks.

btw, who has the fastest fwd dsm? i think 10's are pretty much all ive seen out of a fwd in street trim(aka, not gutted, still driveable). nice job.

I replaced every single rubber under the car once I got the master kit, some rubber wasn't coming in the master kit so I replaced everything but I still have the same problem.

My car used to go straight never was pulling to the right side
Even with boost spool up when I don't have that much power the car still pull to the right I have to hold the stearing or it would go to right side.

If I cruise I don't have any problem and it goes almost straight if I leave the stearing but once I kick the car even littel bit the stearing goes right side and the stearing also go to right side.

Actually it's weired problem and I've replaced everything but still getting the same thing
 
switching the driverside axle to an equal length halfshafts can help. Basically get the intermediate shaft, carrier bearing/Bracket along with the driverside axle from an awd. That should help out abit with the torque steer.
 
My car does the same thing, pulls to the right as soon as the wheels see any power. I'm not running any kind of LSD, so its obvious why my car is doing it. If his LSD is working properly and the tie rods are intact, should it really be pulling right?
 
You still didn't say anything about joints. If you are pulling right, I would start looking on the left.

I changed everything under the car, the joins,every single rubber with the master kit, every ball joints.

The car didn't use to pull right rise and I'm only doing 18 psi at road this isn't that much power it's like above 300 wheel hp, it's not the power problem and not wheel steering it's a fault in the car.

My car used to go to straight even with 547 wheel hp, but I don't know what happened.

Help me out guys to solve out the problem by telling me what to change?

Thanks

And I changed the TIE ROD too, there was some rubbers not included in the master kit, I replaced them, the work shop was able to remove the old rubbers and replace it with new rubbers in the ball joint,tie rod and many other rubbers, after installing the new rubbers the car still pulling the right side so nothing have been changed, then I changed my quaife with the new gear, I have two cars with the same setups Mitsubishi COLT GTI and Eclipse 1997 2g both has exactly the same setup, I ordered two racing 2g tranny from John Shippered so to be sure the quaife is fine i changed the tranny which is totaly new and still doing the same thing.

Actually I don't know what else do I have to look into or change, I'm replacing everything with new stuff and the old stuff still looks so new!

He said that in his first post.

How about wheel bearings?
Oh something new to be checked no I replaced the hub with the new drive shaft shop, my shaft came with new hub, I don't know if my mechnaic replaced the wheel bearing with that, but I guess the wheel bearing will have like weired sound?

Yes I did make wheel alighment and camber and caster and they said everything is in possition.

They said I have littel camber because my car is low littel bit but this isn't the problem because I had this high since 2-3 years and the car didn't act the same, actually it something weired once the car get littel power even with 18 psi or less boost and leave the stairing the car pull right side and the stearing go right, it's like someone is pulling the stearing to right side, without power I leave the stearing and the car go straight.

I'll check the wheel bearing and I still need more coments

Any reply is welcome, I need more info guys
 
Maybe check out the CV axle? I know when one was going bad on my car, after several months with the boot torn, even under a little acceleration it would pull to the right, and when I let off it would be fine.

Does it pull to the left under hard braking?
Nope it doesn't do that it's straight when I push the break but with littel power and leave the stearing it goes right.

I'll check the wheel bearing and the cv axels too

Please more help to look for the problem

Thanks
 
is your cross member bent in any way i've seen this on my buddys dsm it would pull to the right under power and if you hit the brakes hard it would pull to the right turned out that the cross member was bent pretty bad still don't know how he did it but he went and got another one and its worked no more pulling so maybe this problem of yours is related so i would check anything that looks out of line under there with that kinda power it could possibly be
hope this helps
goodluck

My car doesn't have any accedent, and I never done any crash, this is what the paint shop said when I paint some stuff in the car.

The old owner of the car said he never done any crash in the car, so the cross member should be fine, I'll double check on that again

I checked the alighment back again with another shop and he said everything in possition, the caster is okay even the camber is okay, no wheel balance, replaced all my 4 tires mechelin ps-2, my rims are fine reacing heart c5.

I think we noticed that after he made a big burn out, then the car started to pulling right side

I checked the wheel bearing both side and the cv also everything seem to be fine.

Actually I don't know what going on, the alighment shop told me the camber,caster,alighment doesn't have anything when I press the throttel down, if the car is straight when the throttel off this mean their job is 100% good and yeah it goes straight when I leave the stearing when the throttel is off

Is there anyway the tranny do this thing?
 
checked your steering rack bushings yet? i know you mentioned the steering wheel itself isn't turning, but you might want to check that out.

I'll double check on everything and will let you know guys

Thanks for your help and now I pulled my motor out and my tranny I need time till I return everything back so after I put everything back I hope I don't get into these thing again
 
My FWD car did something similar when I had a Quaife in it. When I pushed on the throttle halfway, the car pulled to the right just a little. When I go WOT the car pulled to the right even harder, no wheelspin either. I fixed it by adjusting the suspension to add weight to the right front wheel.

Since you have adjustable suspension, try raising the spring perch on the left-rear and right-front springs by about 3mm.
 
Can I say something stupid I noticed my car with TANABE coilover isn't the same high compaired front left to front right and rear left to rear right, does this make the car pulling the right side?

The problem I pulled the engine out because my pressure was broke so I go so many thinngs to be fixed.

New pressure,new flywheel,new clutch, new clutch housing because the pressure was broke at 1st 2nd gear launch with 520 wheel hp, don't know how did this happen?

Oil pump should be replaced because we noticed oil over the timing belt, it's not working right, got main bearing problem because of the oil pump, I'll change the whole crank with new main bearing and connecting rod bearing, I got that crank from SBR long time a go and hope I don't get crank walk because of that, the crank I'm going to use was bored for .25 connecting rod and .50 main bearing, I don't want to check that because the work should will ask me to remove everything so I'll change everything from down, right now no crank walk, I was going to bore the crank I have in my car but they said no way you should remove everything so I'll use the used SBR crank, hope they did the measurment correct

I'll let you know if the car still pulling right side after replacing these new stuff
Thanks

Yes, that can do it. I would check the rear height settings. My guess is that you have the right rear wheel set for a higher ride height than the left rear. This causes the car to stand on the right rear under hard acceleration, which pushes the left front down harder than the right front. That gives you more front left grip, so the car pulls to the right.

Note: because the front of the car weighs so much more than the rear (and the rear springs are softer), you can have the rears mis-matched and the car still looks almost level. With that much power, having the coilovers set by someone with scales might be worth it.

I agree check your ride height or shock or spring? This might cause your steering problem.
