uhhh.....yeah....its not the tires spinning.
I mean the body (the rear) shifts a little. The tranny is a T56. Suspension mods are: Hotchkis springs, Koni shocks, BMR adj. panhard bar, LCA's, and a BMR torque arm relocation bracket.

Are you sure that your tires are not spinning some....cuz the rear could be stepping out on you
Also...what rearend.......cuz if you have a posi unit, then maybe it is going.
Then there is the obvious....you think that the rear is stepping out cuz you are cockeyed!!! LOL

On my car, there is a brace, up above the panhard bar with 3 bolts in it. If I remember correctly, its flat and about 2 inches wide of so. Mine bolts backed out for some reason causing my car to "sway" a bit when getting on it.

I'll check that also. I took the car out this morning, and actually didn't notice it too much. It doesn't happen only when romping on it, kinda at all acceleration levels. It is, however, more pronounced the faster I go.

check tq's on all bolts/nuts from rear suspension.axle alignment, worn bushings and "tire pressure". I run 25psi on my rear M/T and when I romp on it it kicks to the right. (spinning tires). if it worries you then u need to get under the car and check it all, if not realy worried then it's all good. could be the dearing and cheap tires.

I'm not worried about it too bad; I was kinda thinking it was something with my rear end. I would have liked to know if anyone new off hand what it could be.
Everything's tight, and tire pressure is at 29 psi (good). Not sure about the axle alignment; what that is or how to check it. The tires are good quality (GS-D3's) and fairly new.
