Message	is it usual for our rears to tend to whip to the right under (very) hard acceleration, or would this be mostly due to poor tires (Nitto 555's)? Seems like every other car I accelerate next to pulls straight forward, while my Z pushes sideways in every gear. All bushings are new, except for rear control arms bushings. Alignment is also within OE specs. _________________________________________________________________________________ Im n0t Sarcastic (Kenny): not to over do it, but you're certainly the source of high-class Z mods ZEngineer24: what do you mean by that? Im n0t Sarcastic: I just mean, your Z is one I really admire "The Z is the cause and the solution to all my problems" -- Me "If your car was my car, I'd think it's broken"
