Sometimes when making a left turn it feels like the tail swings or slides out a couple inches, like driving on an underinflated or flat tire and rolling on the sidewall except... my tires are properly inflated.

It seems like the left rear wheel isnt gripping while the one on the right is. I cant be certain. Suspension problem perhaps? Caliper getting stuck?

I don't know about your car, but I have some effective resistance training to tighten up your loose butt. It wouldn't hurt to stop stuffing your face too.

My 95Q does the same thing. Rear comes out easily while turning to the left (fun, but it's gonna get me a ticket) but sticks much better when turning right. I figured it was cuz my right-rear-front subframe bushing has been leaking all of the silicone out of it. Tires are new as are springs & struts. I'm putting in a Z32 N/A completet rear suspension/subframe/diff some time next week. The subframe & all links have solid or delrin bushings. I'll see if that fixes the tail happiness.
