You need to go back to basics and check out the steering and suspension .
1st is it stock or is it modified?
If modified are the parts fitted correctly?
Does it have a rear anti-roll bar ? the wrong bar on the back without a matching front bar will make a 1st gen car have oversteer and feel very skittish.
Check all your steering linkage ball joints and rag joint on the steering,
Also if the rubber mounts on our subframe are old /perished the whole front can wobble under power and braking.
Once all the ball joints are OK and the subframe is solidly mounted get the caster/camber aligned- it should be set close to factory setting for road use.
