Some said that 5AT's shouldn't have TS (except maybe a little) but I experience it on most every road surface and it's very pronounced. If I stand on the trottle, especially out of the hole, it wants to take a big fat left turn (regardless of the slope of the road).

Is it possible my car has a problem, maybe with the VSA? It behaves the same whether the VSA is on or off (aside from additional wheelspin if it's off). If it's not TS, what could account for this aside from say uneven tire pressure or slope of the road? On normal level road when I'm not in the thottle it doesn't pull or anything so it's not my alignment.

Could bad caster or toe cause this as I also have a problem with bumpsteer when cornering.

Clarification, not my alignment as far as non-caster/toe is concerned...it doesn't pull on it's own but I haven't checked toe in or the caster as the bumpsteer is minor and I'm used to what appears to be torque-steer.

did you used to have it with your stock tires. It seems like camber, but you car is not lowered right? Also you might be usinga diffenrent offset

Maybe since your 19's are wider it change the charasteristics of your steering.

The same thing happens "If I stand on the trottle, especially out of the hole, it wants to take a big fat left turn (regardless of the slope of the road)."
in my car after I lowered and put wider rims with different offset.

Is not torque steering.

The weight of the rims could also affect this.

Suspension is stock, and have the problem regardless of the wheels (ADR's or OEM's...my Akuza's are coming tomorrow see sig). The problem happens regardless of loading and while I only have 4000mi, the tires are showing no abnormal wear. I experience bumpsteer even during moderate cornering.

Even calling it a problem is probably unfair...it's more of a quirk and it does it (both the pseudo-TS and bumpsteer) with the OEM's on it too. Both the OEM's and new Akuzas wheels are +45. The ADR's were +38 or 37 I don't remember which as I didn't have them on very long (I had silver Sterlings on just long enough to check the fit and test drive for an order for backordered chromes. I got tired of waiting and changed the order to Akuza's which will on the car Friday). I'm currently back on OEMs.

At this point I'm just wondering if the bumpsteer is a consequence of FWD as I'm just used to driving more neutral cars.
