i thought id make a post about this, since a lot of people that know me, hear me bitching about this from day one.
ever since my swap, my car would pull to one side anytime i would give it gas. im happy to report the problem is fixed now. i swaped over to the correct 5sfe motor mount bracket and installed new motor mounts for the front and rear with the rear one filled with polyurethane, i also found out that my lower control arm was loose. i went out for a drive and all seems well now.... it still slightly drifts to the right when i just let go off the wheel, but its very minor and i think it can be fixed by an alignment. i also still need to test the car at highway speeds.... but so far everything feels great ! -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

Thats great to hear, Art. I was hoping that you would get to the bottom of that eventually so you could enjoy your swap to its fullest.
Bring it up to the Delaware Water Gap meet too, maybe I can get a ride...thats still one of my favorite Celicas.
