I have a b16 swapped crx dx and the steering is very very touchy. If I haul ass and let off, it starts to swerve kind of by itself. When normal driving you can feel it wanting to pull all over the road. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong? Please help, its a little unsafe to drive so I dont drive it hardly ever anymore.

I think I need an alignment, but it dont pull very much when I let go of the wheel. Tires are new.

it's probably alignment
What size are your tires?
Lots of 16s and stuff will pull back and forth allthe time because of ruts in the roads.

yep, mine do it BAD. I think it is from the sidewall flex?

yeah i would have to agree get an alignment first then start to look at things like torque steer and bump steer and stuff like that......

I have this same issue with my crx, and it doesn't have a b16, I went and got an alignment and it fixed nothing, the only answer that I have come up with from various online boards and mechanics is tie rod issues and or bushings, so I'm replacing the bushings, and taking a look at the tie rods. I'll let you know if it helps
