This may be a stupid question but my local tuner couldn't figure it out off the top of his head either. The issue I have is when I'm driving straight (no acceleration) it drives straight, however, if I'm driving straight but give it even the slightest bit of gas it pulls to the left. The closer I get to WOT the harder it pulls. Any ideas on this? My alignment is fine btw. Any help is appreciated

 

Is the car properly aligned or the tires chopped, over or under inflated differently?
Just for extra measures I would check suspension components in that area, wheel bearings, axle shaft, links etc.
Chances are it isn't those but it's good to be aware, most cases people never align their vehicles after such a long period of time and starts to cause issues like so.

 

Yeah it was just aligned last month, and when driving out of boost its fine and straight. I'll have to check all the components out I guess. It's not life or death but annoying that I need to fight the steering a little while in boost. Anyone else have any ideas?

 

Is the center diff whining any? LSD issue maybe?

 

Couple of things
1 toe can do this, have it checked. However it would pull ( hands off wheel) to one side on a flat road at low speeds.
2 ( my case) bent rim. Swap wheels around ( left side to right) see if pull follows. If so bent wheel.
3 others stated above.

 

Not that I can tell no, I hope it's not that haha.

Yeah it doesn't pull unless I'm on the gas. Ill try swapping the wheels around and see what happens.

Thanks for the input you guys

 

There could be many things for this solution. First off check your tires, sometimes a bad tire can cause a directional pull. rotate font to back and see if it helps. the height of your car could be un even, the roads are uneven, tie rods (toe adjustment), bent or damage suspension components.

It varies alot because my integra has full suspension work, new tires and just about everything new with proper alignment(built from ground up). And still manages to pull to the right at acceleration. G/L

 

I'm gonna say its a motor mount. If you can heel/toe brake, you can have a tech check it for you, you'll have to slip the clutch pretty good though. Usually the rearmost (firewall side) mount goes bad first thanks to the monstrous torque these babies push. Give it a shot, see what happens.

 

Thrust angle - back wheels pointed a slightly different direction than the fronts.

 

^^ that too

 

I'll check in to all the above suggestions


If this happens to be the issue what can be done about it?
thanks

 

Nvm looked it up thanks!

 

If true, it is just a screwed up alignment.
