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 !

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
