hahah ALSO while driving my s13 today I noticed that my car likes to pull to the left (and sometimes to the right), mostly when I'm almost at a stop (like just breaking down to 5 mph or so)... sometimes it pulls decently hard to the left while other times it just drifts that way... sometimes (but less often) it pulls to the right. I understand that this could be due to a bad allignment, but I was under the impression that a bad allignment would only pull to one side all the time?
...or maybe the car just normally pulls a little more than the FWD cars I've driven before did. Is a little bit of pulling normal for RWD cars or what? Its kinda odd...
PS.. I've already checked tire pressures, so that's not it... I suppose it could also be slanting of the road I guess, but that doesnt seem too plausable...
wheel drifting - bad allignment or normal?

it could be just a tie rod end. i had a similar prob in my eclipse. i thought it was just my alignment so i figured i'd get it fixed later on... i eventually let it progress to the point where my one wheel would wobble violently like it wasn't bolted on correctly... and then i knew for sure it was my tie rod end. it was more loose than my... well i won't get into that 
but i'm sure you get the picture.
