1995.. Se... with a few questions about ride..

Wassup peeps.. new person here. Just got this car.. and a few questions

1) At high speeds... like 70 plus.. i never feel like i could keep the car going straight. It always seems to wanna pull to the right and it feels like its almost floating while its pullin... Its really weird... Aside from the obvious alignment, do u have any other ideas of what u think it could be?...

Question 2).. It has 145k....and i have no idea when the spark plugs were last changed.. or coolant flushed etc.. As far as a tune up goes-- I was planning on having it being done- i have no time to do these things myself im always busy so i was gonna take it in somewhere. Can you tell me everything that i should have replaced/checked etc..

By the way... for a 4 door sedan..this thing goes.....( i know everyone who reads this will be like no .. s.. h.. *.. but anyway.. please let me know.. thanks.. really appreciate it.

Suren

sparkplugs, fuel filter, coolant, tranny fluid, oil change and filter, spray the throttle body, check the ecu for knock sensor code.

To get a more solid feel of the road, get yourself some nice tires and upgrade the car's suspension. At 145K it's probably worn out. Replace your front struts and rear shocks, then if you really want to make it handle, throw on some H&R springs to drop the ride height about an inch and a half.

There are several different struts to choose from. All ride very different so you better do some more reading on here to see which one will suit you best.
