Default Wierd Steering issues?

I was wondering what in the world this could be...

when i bought the car it was there, but latley it's become way too extreme, almost to the point that it's not safe to drive anymore.


when i'm driving, whenever i accelerate with about 25% or more, the steering wheel cocks to the right about 15 degree's but the car keeps a straight path, and when i let off the accelartor is goes back to straight up and down.

however, whenever i'm accelorating and i push the clutch in, it will go straight up and down all the sudden and the car will jerk to the right almost uncotrolably if i'm holding the steerinwheel to the 15 degree.
it makes since that it will pull the to the right when i'm holding the steering wheel to the right, but why you it go straight when i'm accelerating with the steering wheel cocked, but pull to the right when i'm just coasting or between gears.

so basically the steering wheel swivels in a jerking motion back and forth depending wether or not i'm accelorating (at only 25% maybe less throttle, even when i'm going granny style from a stop)
i understand that the steering wheel jerks at wot, i'm used to it, but why the hell would it be acting this way at less than half throttle?

could this have to do with a bad lsd? or any other ideas?

mods to date
front traction bars
meagan racing springs...

stock bushing everywhere.

wheel bearings/struts/tierods all check out.

would a back lca bushing cause this?

any idea?

Get your suspension looked at. If something isn't loose or broken, then the alignment is FUBAR. Just a guess...
