Hi, I have an ef with a really bad alignment problem. The car violently sways from side to side when the steering wheel is let go I don't know whats wrong with it, I think its worse than just needing an alignment. The guy I got it from installed an integra disk brake conversion, and its lowered on springs. Oh yeah I installed some newer tires because the ones on the car were bald, and that helped it very little.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

 

Take it in for an alignment, and post up the alignment readings. Without that info, there's not much we (or I, anyway) can tell you.

 

What he said^.

Also, 99% of EF's have shot suspension and steering rack end bushings by now. You will most likely need to replace most of them to fix the problem completely.

 

Also, what size rims / tyres / psi etc? How does road surface affect this problem?

 

It has ls mesh rims, and I just realized the new tires did make a decent difference its not as bad as before,but its still really bad like when I hit a pot hole or a bump the car will sway from side to side.

 

Didn't answer my question...

 

The toe setting is probaly way out of spec.

My car felt like that to when I first installed my camber kit.

 

If he used the Integra knuckles or any Integra control arms other than the trailing arms, then you've found your problem right there. If he swapped trailing arms and never had the car aligned afterwards, that's also contributing to your problem.

10 bucks says that the rear is toed in or toed out severely.
