No it IS torque steer...believe it or not its not hard to get a non-LSD FF car to turn due to torque...being pulled is alot different from being pushed.

get a wheel alignment. theres no way in hell you are torque steering the 7afe, or the 5sfe unless you are dropping them from over 5K RPM. even when hitting the gas its either tread wear, alignment, or tire pressures are off, check the tire pressures, then check your treadware, then get it aligned.

ok, my alignment is perfect, no drift or what so ever anywhere, the tire is brandnew with the perfect tire pressure, dude i work on cars every day, i just wasnt use to the front wheel drive an all, pull not push. and yes it can def happin with a 7a, that and its one wheel drive and yeah its when your gunnign it, with these little **** engines you have to...I thought you would know a little more for even being a motorator

why complain about it??? its so minute, i guess im comparing it to FF cars ive driven that actually have some decent power. we have a 2004 GTP and that things got over 200 HP FWD, and the torque steer on that is so minute i dont even classify it as torque steer. all im saying is quite bitching about it. if its annoying to you, then it isnt the torque steer, theres something wrong. if it is torque steer it isnt worth bitching about cuz its too small to make any difference.

and you can ask anyone who has been here for a decent ammount of time... i know what im talking about.

Yeah... I know what you're talking about... if these guys were to drive my car right now (minus the LSD), they would know what REAL torque steer feels like...

It still happens tho. I get it a bit on my car but It's usually to the right...

Mainly happens on a hard launch and around roundabouts (no kuya not talking bout understeer biggrin.gif) Also when I change to 2nd going hard sometimes i chirp and the front pulls a bit to the right.

Car is always aligned properly (done twice in 20k kms) and fairly new toyo's.

Also boosted_K2 I think ur attitude is pretty poor dude (specially for a mod), they aren't complaining about it they are discussing the issue.

(&yes I have driven powerful FWD's before.)

My car is pretty quick, and yeah I get torque steer, even though it's automatic. Like if I rev up to my stall rate in neutral, about 3500rpm, and then slam it to drive...I burnout a little but I get torque steer unless I hold on really tight.
