2 months, over 200 miles.... I hope not but that's more than enough at highway speeds.

86's have no torque steer at all. There isn't enough torque even if it was FWD. The mechanic may not know this car and may assume that it is FWD (I get that sometimes- people are surprised it's RWD) or is intimidated by a car he knows nothing about but since it's a flat 4 he assumes it's wierd or whatever.

Bottom line- don't go to this hack again with this car.
