I have a STD with a SWAP.

hasport mounts. GSR Brake system.

OK the problem is when I go fast the car starts to swerve badly.
I have stock springs etc..

Its very bad I can get in an accident it swerves badly...

Anyone had a similar problem and have a solution I need an alignment but I don't think that will solve the swerving problems.

 

tires, and most likely since u added some considerable weight. the springs arent really matched up to that motor weight.

 

When does it swerve? Always, random, under braking/acceleration/turning?

Check your alignment ASAP. In the meantime, check your bushings and bolts throughout the suspension. A torn RTA bushing made my rex very squirly under hard braking.

But alignment is #1.

tires are GSR rims with 185/65/15s.
In front back 13s steelies.

Only does it when I be going fast like racing or just driving fast. Its really scary.

it only swerve when going fast like racing or just smashing the throttle going straight. Don't have the swerving problem under braking.. only when going fast thanks for the help guys. I haven't got an Alignment since the swap which has been about 1-2 years happened on both motors my b16 and this b16

 

are you sure what your not feeling is really torque steer. it tends to happen when u have alot of horsepower in a car that wasnt designed for

 

Get an alignment. Period.

Why are you doing this it not only looks like crap its dangerous. No damn wonder its swerving on you, what you are doing makes this thing tailhappy as hell. low profile 15s in front and high profile 13's in back? those will put you in a ditch.

I didn't put all 15s at the back because my 13s are brand new have hell thread

 

people use that tire setup for drifting . you need uniform meat at all corners and some urethane in those bushings . .there isn`t a bolt or bushing i haven`t touched in my car . i drove other peoples cars and i just get sick . i don`t know how some people can drive with a car doing those kinda things. camber kits, bushings , and sway bars can make a whole new car outta that hatchy.
