I dunno why, but when i pound the gas, i have alot of torque steer (aka car pulls hard to the left)....i was wondering, is this normal and if it is, how do i get rid of it?? Would an LSD work???

the celica dosnt have any type of lsd

im kind of trying to diagnose a similar problem in my car. mine only happens at high speeds. it seems that as soon as i touch the gas....even a little bit, my steering wheel will tilt left. as if the car is trying to pull right, and the car is trying to correct it the same way it does when u come out of a turn an let go of the wheel. this only really happens at 55mph or more.

i think the issue could be partly caused by worn motor mounts.

under normal tq steer (like when im trying to get the most power out of the car) my car seems to go left or right from Tq steer. this is normal.

i talked to other turbo celica guys... and they say their car dosnt do what mine is doing.

today i also discovered one crossmember bolt that was a little loose ane one that was totaly loose because it was striped. maybe they have something to do with it.
