Weird steering issue...

[Acecool]

Ok, I have a weird steering issue as of lately...

When I am on the highway going say 60mph and I go around a curve... I turn left, and then it feels like hicas or something kicking in right after I turn more than like 5 to 10 degrees and it REALLY goes into the curve....

It feels pretty cool, but it never used to do this... when I turn right I feel it sometimes but not all the time...

What could this be?

I should note that I got new tires too...

i wish i had hicas then mebe i could think about this problem. umm isnt hicas suposed to not work at highway speed?

Thats the thing, I do not have a hicas model 240sx.... its an 89...

Its more than likely your ball joints. I've had two 240's that have done this. ball joints both times.

noticed that when I brake the car goes a little left....

I am not sure if it is the engine - since there is minimal clearance between the turbo elbow and the steering column...

ball joints you say?? I will take a look, thanks.

check your tire pressure in the right rear. i had a slow leak in mine and it made the car feel the same way when turning left. mine's a 95 so def. no hicas, and ball joints were just replaced not long ago.
