johnd-mkiv Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 after a few hard pulls in my supra as soon as I shut off the throttle the car nose dives right and I feel im having to correct it, similar when I accelerate it doesn't seem to pull straight like other supras ive owned?? jacked it up today cant see any worn bushes, or feel play in anything. Im wondering if the diff maybe the cause need to check the suspension aswel it has hks adjustable coilovers to make sure they are all at equal settings. any one else had this or point me in the right direction thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOGIE Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 is there any movement/play in the wheel when its jacked off the ground? possible wheel bearing? Hub flange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I would suspect a wheel bearing not being fucked or replaced and torqued hard enough. Edit: if you end up diagnosing as possible diff, I have one you can borrow to troubleshoot with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) Sticky caliper Good call Is it driving straight under normal conditions? Done the basics like tyre pressures? Edited December 15, 2013 by Pig (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of your rear tyres is low on pressure, and it'll be the side it pulls towards while accelerating, so the left one. point me in the right direction Your car is already doing that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L18msy Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Sticky caliper Probably this. Take it a run and try not to use the brakes. Then go round each wheel and feel if one of the brakes calipers are hot. Had the same issue with my old Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
