    Torque Steer

    I have been experiencing major torque steer to the right when changing gear at hi rev's. Wondering if this is the norm???

    have u got stock wheels? mine torque steers left and right so if yours is going right it may be an alignment or tyre pressure problem.

      depends on the slant of the road but mine seems to go in a straight line....maybe you should just hold the wheel tight and prepare for the "VTEC YO"

        Honda DC2R's dont torque steer...

        (they don't have any torque)

        if you have a pulling to the right feeling, you need to check your sussy and alignment...

                If its not alignment and road, could it be more simply you are not keep the car straight when you are gear changing at high RPM/heavy acceleration? (Not trying to have a go at your driving)

                Maybe have someone in your car watch what you are doing?

                  LOL with my hand off the wheel under heavy acceleration on a dead straight road it pull right for a split second while the gear grap's... Note i did this at night in a industrial area... Normaly have one hand on wheel... LOL.. Ive asked around at work they all said torque steer.. Even showed them.. they all agree.. had my car jacket with every one having a look underneath nothing loss or bent and no sign of wear!!!

                        sounds like you need to keep your hand on the wheel then?

                        it is not 'the norm' to drive around with your hands off the wheel...

                          i would hardly describe that as MAJOR, and all the subsequent responses were based on your having "major' issues... not a minor one that requires you to actually drive properly...
