I am having problems with my suspension (I think). When I am making long left turns while accelerating the car is fine. When I let off the accelerator iin these turns the car suddenly seems like it is hydroplaning to the right. Thats exactly what it feels like. Its been getting progessively worse. The steering wheel also pulsates somewhat during normal driving. Any suggestiong would be awesome

pulsating wheel... that makes me think you have a power steering leak. i had that problem in my Z.

i had some people tell me that it might be in my transmission, specifically my differential. On top of all this, it groans a little when i back up (not necessarily with it in reverse gear) but only for about a foot or two.

Start with the easy (and cheap) things first. Check all your lugs nuts to make sure they are tight. Then check your tie rod ends. One good way to see if there is play in your steering is to jack up your front end and wiggle each tire in all directions to check for excessive play or any popping sounds. When is the last time you had an alignment check? Are your tires worn unevenly?
Hope it helps, good luck.

Sounds like you need your tires balanced too.

i actually have been having the same problem, and i know there is a power steering fluid leak, from the hose coming off the resivoir to to back of the engine tight under the TB. i tightered the clamps but it still leaks, i fill it mabye 1/2 inch every week or week and a half
