If the tire pressure does not help it could still be the tires. Are they new? I had this problem with a set of michelins. Switch the tires side to side and the direction of pull should be reversed.

Get a good alignment from a shop that KNOWS 993s (warning: since you're new to her, it ain't cheap). Ask them about "Kinematic toe" and that'll tell you whether they have any clue as to how to properly align a 993. What it "sounds" like you're experiencing is the rear end "torquing" when you go on/off the gas. Worn rear suspension bushings (possible, but your mileage/age isn't all that high) and the kinematic toe have much to do with how your rear end behaves as it travels up/down under torque. Given that you've addressed the easy stuff as already mentioned, this is what I'd address.

No affiliation but two good shops I have experince with are Shade Tree in Morristown and Farnbacher in Danbury Ct. I just had mine done this week at Shade Tree and I could not be happier. Shade Tree has been around for 40 years working on Posches and most anything coming out of Europe. Farnbacher is more expensive and a bit of adrive, but they have the latest Hunter machine which is really slick and great mechanics who really know 911's (they work on every version of 911's and race/sponsor cars - they won the GT2 class in 2006).

I know this is going to sound crazy, but I've noticed the car pull from side to side due to torque on both the GT3 and 993TT. But haven't experienced it with the c2s.

Yes, three of the tires were at a cold pressure of 30 psi. The driver's rear was at 23 psi.
On the way to the gas station I could still feel the drift. After filling the tire to match the others the car drove beautifully and inspired my post about naming her "Jessica." Herehttps://rennlist.com/forums/993-forum/424528-i-gave-up-motorcycling-for-this-and-now-she-has-a-name.html

Ahh! So it was that feeling after you thought; "Oh crap, Jessica is going to cost me a butt-load of time and money after tonight." and the, the next morning you were like; "Woooo! I can't believe I got out of that **** for free!!! man I LOVE her!"

That's funny. I was thinking something along the lines of "Once I put the hose to her she toed the line..." Sorry, couldn't help myself. I did love the Jessica story, btw.
