ever since my swap, my car has slightly pulled to the right. it only happens when i give the car gas. other then that it drives perfectly straight. i took the car to a few shops and none of them can tell me what is causing the problem. had the alignment done and eveyrthing......one guy mentioned that bad motor mounts can sometimes cause the car to pull to one side. so im trying to figure out if the way i have my mount setup has anything to do with my problem.
the 3sgte has a bracket on the passengers side of the motor with 2 or 3 holes in it, and then the motor mount connects to that when you put your motor in.... when you guys did your swap, did you swap over to the 5sfe bracket, or keep the 3sgte one? i kept my 3sgte one. it seem to work, but you can only use 2 bolts to connect the mount to the bracket because the 5sfe motor mount dosnt line up 100%. what did eveyone (5sfe-3sgte) else do with that mount? oh and no, its not TQ steer. this happens when i baby the car and just give it a little bit of gas. i mostly notice it on the highway.

if you guys can, test this out for me. take your car out on a flat road, while cruising at a constant speed, let go of the wheel, then give the car some gas and see if it pulls to the right or not.
if it does or dosnt, tell me how that motor mount looks in your car. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
