I have a 91 CRX Si, stock D16A6, ZC trans with KAAZ LSD. IT has full ES bushings except for the trailing arms. KONI yellows with ground controls 400# front, 450# rear.
The car is a wandering nightmare. IT has been aligned and has a touch of toe out, it sits far too low and has a fair bit of negative camber, but the car wanders regardless of ride height. It has all new front end components so nothing loose there. I've tightened everything but it pulls all over the place. The only thing I haven't touched is the rack, any chance that its my steering rack?

Could it be the radius arms(or whatever they're called?

Is this a good excuse to get a Quaife rack?

Any other ideas?

 

check your inner and outer tie rods , could possibly be the rack, if its wandering it sounds more like toe in, toe out usually feels darty and turns easily, how much toe out are you running anything more than 1/16" ( or.07 on the alignment sheet) on each side(out) is a lot and could cause drivability problems

 

The inner and outer tie-rod ends are brand new. The toe is out probably 1/16th but the car seems to go right when I throttle it and left when I back off. I hate the way it drives, it's very nervous on the road and worse on the track.

 

RADIUS BAR............................................... ............................./BUSHINGS

 

could be a stupid thing like tyre pressure or a fault with the actual tyre... if pressure is incorrect it will pull to the side, if the tyre has an actual structural fault it will pull as well.

 

Tires are new and pressures are bang on. I'm going to replace the radius arm bushings next. After that I guess I'll do the steering rack.

 

Bushings inside of the steering rack get old and then it starts to wander off on you. Might be your problem.

 

What pressures are you running?

If you are on stock wheels then stock pressures are fine but aftermarket wheels need different pressures. I would add like 4psi to eack wheel if you are at 30 right now.

Radius arm - yes
Rear Trailing arm - yes
Camber links - yes
Steering rack - yes
Steering rod ends - yes

Try the tire pressure first. But on and off the gas seems like either rad arms or steering.
