Is the steering rack adjustable to prevent bump steer

I wouldn't go that far! I had a 2003 Accord V6
It did not tramline but the cornering, emergency maneuvering and acceleration were no where near as good. And the brakes shook the steering wheel so much at 75mph it was scary.

My 1995.5 S6 does not tramline.
Lowered on H&R V8 springs + Bilstein Sports. Slotted Camber plates per Igor's template.

225/50/16 Yokohama V4S
255/40/17 Hankook K104
I do get bump steer though. It is a bit disconcerting but I can still hold a line once I have it set.

that's a nice looking s-car that you have -- Re: I wouldn't go that far! I had a 2003 Accord V6
mine's a little beat. Someone backed into the front and also the rear. I need new bumpers to make it look good again.

It isn't brand specific...
Nothing wrong with Exalto A/S's... It's just that you may have "cupping" of the tire tread causing you to experience high speed 'wander'.
I've had it happen before, and according to the tire guys, they say it isn't uncommon at all. Might be worth letting a REALLY GOOD tire shop look into it and see what they think.
Are your tires directional (as most are these days)?? If not, you can try moving them around.

Honda brakes FTL!
I had a Honda in high school, which gives me an excuse to bad mouth them because I actually owned one once.
Anyways, I kept destroying the brake lining every few months and warping the rotors.
Finally I got so tired of crappy Honda parts, I bought some better vented/slotted rotors and threw on some (cheap) PBR Metal Masters. Never had a problem again.
Those cars plain suck!
