Pulls left on Acceleration

[z34ls1]

My '01 pulls to the left pretty hard when i step on the throttle. I checked tire pressure and it's good. My car is pretty stock except for removing the Cats and a Computer Tune. Is there something I need to look for in the rear end? From a dead stop doing a burn out I don't notice it as much but at a 45mph roll in 2nd kicking it down she pulls the left front corner up and you feel it through the steering wheel, a slight turn to the right solves it but I've never noticed any other cars I've had (fast ones) doing this.

Thanks.

Could be front,Could be in the rear!!
I'd check the 4 wheel alignment,I'd almost bet that proper alignment will fix your problem!!

Thanks for the Reply. The car had new tires put on it a few months b4 I bought it so there are no obvious signs to look at. I'm also not that familiar with this rear end/tranny set up, honestly I was hoping to see some other post here about it but my search turned up empty.
4 wheel alignment was my first thought to after not seeing it in the car fax history. Everything else is in there including Oil Changes (Car was GM owned first 5 years and recently traded in on a new Vet).

I would also check the shocks. A weak left rear shock when romped on will make the rear feel loose and pull you to the left. I had the right rear go out on me and that's what it felt like until I got it replaced.

Thanks for the Info, it's going in for a 4 wheel alignment. I will ask them to check them as well.

Any news?

Yes Sir, 4 Wheel Alignment made all the Difference in the World!

Mine was doing exactly the same thing, when I hit second gear on a heavy acceleration it would drift to the left. I installed the Z06 shocks and sway bar suspension, and walla it disappeared. No problems since.
