I drive a 92 gtz levin.

when i launch or accelerate hard my steering wheel pulls HARD to the right?

is most of my power being transferred through the one wheel?

is this normal? if not, what is it and how can i fix it?

Thanks

Do you have the same compound tyres on the front. Is your wheel alignment, toe/camber etc correct?

yes both tyres are new, same camber, everything is normal. thr drivers cv is on its way out.. could that be it?

Check the driveshaft hanger bearing... and recheck wheel alighnment.

driveshaft hanger bearing?

*double post.. how noob

right drive shaft is a 2 piece shaft, gearbox side piece hangs of the block on the bearing (just before inner CV-joint). you can check if the bearing is ok by grabbing the inner shaft and trying to wonble it arround.
The reasoning behid 2 piece shaft design is to reduce torque steer (by making both of the outer shafts, which are on the angle, equal). Correct me if I am wrong

OK i got this all the time in my mazda turbo isnt it just torque steering?? No lsd making one wheel spin when boost kicks in and turning that wheel only, pulling the car to that side. Hey i have no idea just taking a guess

if its non lsd and its torque steer it would prolly pull to the left as the left axel is closer making it easyer to put more power there (what happend on c56 anyway)

Almost certainly you have worn joints in your superstrut suspension.
Email Mr Revhead and he will do you a good price on toyota genuine replacement parts - do not buy remanufactured or aftermarket superstrut parts as they don't last.

oh yeah....

in that case S/S is a prime suspect.....
does it pull under braking?
