Hi Danny,
Hope you are enjoying your rex. I am a newbie too so don\'t take my word as gold. I am sure someone will set me right if I am off the mark. Last time my car felt like it was pulling sideways was because my rear tyres did not have the same amount of pressure. Check your tyre pressure as it does not cost you a penny first.

Did you get the geometry checked ?
Car components aren\'t all identical, so any change at any suspension point should have the alignment checked/adjusted.
If a long way out might suggest a bad fitment.
Another option did you check all springs/dampers are same ratings and adjusted to the same ? A soft spring/damper could do that.
EDIT: and as said, might be as simple as tyre pressure -- here\'s hoping :)
cheers for replies
coilovers on next week then aligned
this is how i bought it just hope its not bushes
just spent £2000
tyres
spa dials
hsd coilovers
tarox discs
ferodo pads
feel there is more bills coming
sorry danny misread on my part :(
If original bushes and you\'re fitting coilovers I\'d get all new bushes - poly if serious track time planned. NO point stripping parts off the suspension and getting alignment done and not the bushes (imho)
cheers pz
there not original, car was completley rebuilt from rolling chassis 8 yrs ago
what is the best way to check bushes.
ps after backing off heavy throttle is it normal to get smell of fuel,
it has high pressure pump and bov
thanks
